Sounds like you have Shin splints or something similar. Go see a chiropractor.

Happens often. I had several years between my THRs but the same damage that caused my left hip to go occurred in the right one.How likely is it to need the second hip replaced? Does this happen often?
Curious for those who had the second THR done in this thread - did you have to go back to the initial screening stage for assessment or were you able to short circuit some of the waiting time since you were already a hippie (eg maybe you could use the same ortho surgeon). The reason I ask is I know I have limited time on my right hip remaining and it took 20 months from the time I told my sports medicine doctor "its time" to my actual THR (3.5 weeks ago now)
I think the answer may depend on your health insurance. For me, by the time I had the first one done I had already revived a diagnosis of AVN in both hips, with both heads having collapsed. But I still went through the process insurance requires, which involved the surgeon getting approval for the surgery, the preop physical, etc. But none of that affected the wait time or anything. When I was ready for the second, we just started the process and scheduled it. But the system may work differently in Canada.Curious for those who had the second THR done in this thread - did you have to go back to the initial screening stage for assessment or were you able to short circuit some of the waiting time since you were already a hippie (eg maybe you could use the same ortho surgeon).
