It may be secondary to delayed postoperative healing, but complications may have interrupted recovery. To be on safe side, contact your orthopedic surgeon, have a followup visit, and get an opinion. Physical therapy, incorporating exercise, may stabilize your symptoms and allow you to "turn the corner".
