Your hip needs to be replaced when the cartilage is worn away. An x-ray of hip will tell you and your doctor if you need a replacement. My left hip was replaced Nov. 16, 2017 and my right one will be replaced Dec. 13, 2018. Recovery time is six weeks or so and is no fun, but it gets better after that very rapidly.
Thanks. Luckily, nothing like that so far. I'm feeling more of a dull pain and soreness, which may be due to overuse. The pain is localized to the hip; nothing up and down the leg. I've got a physical coming up in a few weeks so I'll mention it then and maybe get the xray.
