Call surgeon: Any problems after a major surgery such as total hip replacement warrant a call to the surgeon's office. Knowing your equipment, your stage of recovery, any complications during/after surgery, and any underlying medical conditions, the surgeon is in the best position to advise about and/or treat any significant complications or temporary symptoms that may occur.
