Possible tendon damage

Hi there

It’s 10 weeks since I had my thr. I have progressed well until a few days ago. I suddenly had excruciating pain in my right glute when stretching in bed. The same evening when I went to stand up the pain returned and I couldn’t put weight on my operated leg. It feels as if I might have torn a tendon. Seeing my physio on Tuesday to re-assess. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. Have now reverted to using one crutch again as there’s no rhyme or reason as to when the pain returns.
Many thanks, Janet

    @Janet33 an unexpected hip malfunction does not sound like a lot of fun thats for sure.

    Maybe using a different set of muscles suddenly found a weak spot and thats all it was.

    I bet the physio or doctor can find out what it was. They will say, try putting your arm (or leg) over here.
