:I will add up to the first contributor's answer, it is right that if it is well set and is not a defective device therefore there should really be less to no swelling at all. But if there is swelling and more other symptoms that occur therefore that might be dangerous since there are some defective devices and some defective installations known, and might lead you to some serious problems in the long run. You can check on the link on my source to read about possible defects given by some of the hip implant devices.

Is it normal to have leg swelling after valve replacement surgery?

I had partial knee replacement about a year ago and have a big problem with swelling and stiffness?

Is a total hip replacement a recommended treatment for subluxation?
This question should have been posed in another way, "Is there any chance of subluxation/luxation of a hip, no matter with or without hip prosthesis?"... And the answer is YES....so if you go for a total hip replacement, remember that you might unfortunately experience subluxations here too.. Sincerely, H.A.Khan
