@Shelly82 three weeks on Friday since having RTHR, having some glute pain in hip but physio says that's because the muscles were so weak. I had hip dysplasia which caused my arthritis. Surgeon said my hip was in worse shape than he thought, I had a large tear in the cartilage which wouldn't have shown on xray no regrets getting the operation.
