I had total hip replacement on my left hip due to avascular necrosis on September 9 2015. I did physical therapy but still had pain. I aqua jogged for one continuous hour every other day, additionally, for about 10 weeks. The doctor said he was 80% sure that the pain would go away after about 8 weeks of aqua jogging. However, the pain is still present, although not 24 hours a day, but every day I have a period of intense pain in my left hip and thigh. What could be causing this? My doctor said something is definitely wrong with the leg.
