Hi,
First of all, it's sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, you need to evaluate X-ray of the hip joint to rule out any infection in the acetabulum of hip joint however the possibility of psoas abscess should also be ruled out.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
