Artificial hip?

I have 2 artificial hips 3 days ago I slipped on my friend's floor and landed on my left side (specifically the hip area). I was able to get up and able to walk and sit and drive but it’s very sore and warm does it sound like anything could be broken?

Doubt it.
Problem lurking. Call your surgeon

Probably not. If you start to have severe pain an X-ray is indicated. I suspect that I will see a black and blue area over your hip in the next few days.
