Constant Pain In Thighs, Bum Post Weeks Of Hip Replacement. Cause?

Can you help? My husband had a right hip replacement 5 weeks ago; he had fragmin injections up until 2 days ago. He s recuperating very well - very impressive progress according to the physiotherapist . 3 days ago, he started to feel constant pain in his right thy and his bum - pain he has a hard time describing. He even has a hard time sleeping at night. After such progress, what could be the cause? I have to say, he is not using either his walker or his cane all the time to walk or go up and down the stairs; it might mean nothing but thought you should know that. Your input would be most appreciated - any suggestions on how to allieve the pain? Thank you for taking the time to read all this!! Look forward to your reply Mrs. L,

Please look for any evidence of infection and get his counts done like CBC , if the pain does not subside on its own.
