What To Do If Having Crackling In The Joint After Lifting Heavy Weight After Having Hip Replacement Previously?
Hello Doctor, I have a cementless total hip replacement 10 years that I felt very well until a week ago when I made the mistake to pick up a pack of about 10 kg (unconscious) that I took about 30 m the moment I had no pain, but then, realizing what I mistake .... I feel a discomfort, I have not courage to walk on foot, feeling like crackling in the joint. Do you think there was inevitable , or I have patience for a period? Thank you,

Hello.
There's really no reason to suspect you've done any damage to the hip replacement here. You may have a bout of bursitis for now and rest and ibuprofen will take care of that, but do call your doctor to let him know about this
