Hello,
If your problem is due to calcification around hip joint then instead of going straight to hip replacement you may ask for endoscopic release of calcification or debridement at / near hip joint. You may discuss this from your doctor. He is the best judge for this.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
