i experience a slippage or slight motion in my new joint

this happens very occasionally but does happen when i either shift my

hips in standing position

or raise my thigh upwards in a standing postion.

My local orthapedist (not a resurf surgeon) said it was my synovial

fluid

shifting around the device.

I get this too sometimes, more frequently on the one I had done a year ago.

Come to think of it, May 20 is my first anniversary for that one. I feel it

very occasionally on the older one (Oct. 2001) too. I don't worry much about it.

There's no pain and I just tell myself there's metal in there. Otherwise I'd

never know.

slippage or motion in my resurf hip

Hi

I am 7 weeks post op with a resurfaced hip

as i do more exercise(within the guidelines)

i experience a slippage or slight motion in my new joint

this happens very occasionally but does happen when i either shift my

hips in standing position

or raise my thigh upwards in a standing postion.

My local orthapedist (not a resurf surgeon) said it was my synovial

fluid

shifting around the device.

my phy therapist feels this might be correct as i have been doing a fair

amout of exercise

and thinks i might have inflamed my bursar and have increased my

synovial fluid.

wondering if others had this reaction or have feedback.

i have not gotten a call back from my resurf surgeon yet

thanks
