“I'm in a lot of pain?”
I have a history of knee replacements, had two revisions. I have a poor walk, and a discectomy to address sciatic pain. Now I can't cope with pain sitting and have a numb leg and Achilles pain.

Find a chiropractor and / or massage therapist who does soft tissues and works your gluts. Also regular adjustments should help as well.
Find a Dr certified in the Cox Flexion Distraction Technique. https://www.coxtechnic.com/physicians.aspx.
You would need a dedicated consult and exam to understand what the source and contributing factors for your pain.
Consult Functional Medicine or a Naturopath doctor. Start Acupuncture with Moxibustion. If BMI over 27, consult Obesity Medicine.
Get to a good Chiropractor and have a thorough exam detailing the biomechanics of your hips, pelvis and lumbosacral spine. Stretching, mobilization and manipulation of the spine and pelvis may be very helpful. I hope it helps. Take care and be well.
Need an orthopedic surgeon, a primary care physician, and a pain management doctor to work together to coordinate your care.
