    THR Groin & Thigh Pain 5 Months After<

    I have not. I am hoping and praying to put it off. I am seeing a pt fir the bursitis and it is helping. The back problems are a result of favoring my operated leg due to the bursitis. I have no idea what to do about pain meds for my other hip. Those opioids are a nightmare for me
