Any one who is experiencing difficulty in recovering from thr and have used the implants manufactured by Sulzer Orthopedics should visit their website at sulzermedica.com. Symptoms most prevelant will be experiencing pain in the joint when rising from prolonged seating or riding in a car. It is also painful to do straight leg raising. Don't confuse the joint pain with muscle pain. Contact your doctor if you are having any of these symptoms to find out what type of implant was used. Approximately 17,500 of these products have been implanted and the company reports only 61 cases of losening. Let's find out if there are any more. Mike
