What type of hardware did you have? If it was an IM nail & screws were they removed? When my son broke his femur the Dr said the hardware had to come out within 2 yrs to prevent problems down the road. But after almost 3 yrs & six surgeries, 2 non-unions he now has a plate & screws. The Dr said he would have that for life, as its too hard to remove.
Is your gait correct? If you don't walk properly that can affect your hip & knee.
Maybe it's time for a visit to the OS, and maybe some x-rays & an MRI to see whats going on
