In a total hip replacement the surfaces that have arthritis are excised. the can be other causes of your pain. Hetertopic occifacation or H.O.( extra bone growth that interferes with joint motion) for short. It best to see the orthopedic surgeon who performed your surgery and have a x-ray taken. One of your acetabular implants may be wearing irregularly, which could require an addition surgery (unlikely for a two year old hip). Worst case is you have developed a infection and require antibiotics. Best thing to do is see your doctor. Best Wishes! Not possible.

Not necessary the hip itself but the bones that the hip replacement was attached to. Maybe that is where your problem is coming from. Checked with your doctor and make sure you did not get one of those bad hip joints that they recalled. nfd♥ There are still bones in the area.

In fact, arthritis is the most common indication of the NEED for a hip replacement. However you can still have (or get) arthritis in other joints such as knees, the other hip, the back, etc. even though one of your hips has been replaced. You need to be examined by an orthopedist. Possibilities of the cause for your pain range from heterotopic ossification (growth of bone in soft tissues); http://totaljoints.info/other_thr_complications.htm to infection; http://totaljoints.info/TOTALHIP_infection.htm to loosening of the prosthesis: http://totaljoints.info/LOOSENINGTOTALJOINTS.htm Time to get to the bottom of things.
