Hi i had total hip replacement 6 weeks ago today and am doing well walking lots without crutches but am getting persistent pain in my glutes?

6 weeks post total h: Pain is the bodies way of letting u know that u r doing to much too quickly. Ask the physiotherapist who is working with you to suggest some activity modification. Ie u may need to continue with crutches for another 4 weeks
