How long after a hip replacement does it take to be walking pain free?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
2-6 weeks: While some patients with severe disease, and/or an inflammatory component (eg. Rheumatoid arthritis), can have immediate pain relief, most patients are not requiring pain medications somewhere between 2-6 weeks.
