Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your query.

Thigh pain is due to many reason apart form old cases of hip replacement. If your xray is recent one i.e less then one month then send me the report or discuss the implant condition and osteolysis surrounding the implant i.e condition of bones surrounding the impalnt with your doctor.

Get xray of lumbosacral spine in AP and Lateral view and discuss the condition of intervertebral space and straightening with your doctor.

Ask him about the muscle strengthening exercises and also about the diet and how much you can walk for daily walk.

I hope it helps.
