Could my tummy tuck be causing hip pain and mobility issues 2 years post op?

cecegirl73
About 6 months post op, my right hip started "clicking" while working out. This progressed over the past year to restricted mobility in the joint, difficulty standing straight after long periods of sitting, and enough pain while walking to cause a limp. I've had X-rays and a ct scan, but no cause was found. I'm just curious if anyone else has experienced this after surgery, or if I should be investigating further with my gp/specialist. TIA
