Specializes in Pain Management

Ortho surgery: Most orthopedic interventions require 4-6 weeks to heal. This depends on the intervention and location. Hip replacements also need physical therapy which is sometimes the main reason for pain which could be muscular in nature. Give it some time. Other causes which are not common would be infection, bleeding etc. See your surgeon if you have any concern.
