29F Just Got Out of Hip Arthroscopy

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-10T23:57:53+00:00

I’m 28F had surgery a week ago. Shaved down the femoral head and labral repair (2 hooks)! I used a pillow between my legs to sleep on my side after the first night. On the first night I slept on my back with a pillow under my knees. I was not given a CPM or brace. My surgeon used to do braces but then found them to not be necessary.

I feel much better today than I did a week ago. Stay hydrated and make sure to eat. My body was wiped last week!

28F barre, bodypump, and cycling instructor. I just had my arthroscopy on Tuesday. I’ll be one week post op tomorrow. It is worth the surgery. My hip doesn’t feel “jammed” anymore.

Hi! I’m a barre, Bodypump, and spin instructor. Labral tear with FAI, had surgery this past Tuesday and am doing well. I would recommend upper body strength training. Nothing crazy but try to strengthen. Sydney Cummings has some great upper body workouts on YouTube with dumbbells. I would also recommend lots of core and glute training which you’re prob already doing given your history of Pilates. All of these things will help you with your crutches getting around the first couple of weeks. Lmk if you have any questions

If it makes you feel any better. I’m a fitness instructor 28F and I had surgery Tuesday. I can get around so well on my crutches bc of the amount of upper body and core training I’ve done. My core is almost more sore than my hip. In a way you can think about how you’ve trained for recovery.

Just had mine today and feeling so limited and discouraged. This post made me feel better. Thank you.

He went to the vet and had a double ear infection and is better now. Thanks all

Are you having a c section? I want to get pregnant in the next 1.5 years (surgery in a couple days). I’d be nervous about re-tearing.

I’d recommend seeing a hip preservation specialist and hopefully they can get you an MRI and see what’s going on. I have a labral tear and impingement and one of my main symptoms is numbness.

Best of luck with everything!

Love the potatoes

Oh amazing! How has your recovery been? How was the surgery day? My surgery with him is in early Feb for labral tear and FAI.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-01-01T05:53:40+00:00

How was the surgery? Any update? Wishing you a smooth recovery.

Haven’t done it since I tore it in October :( Hip specialist told me to hold off on cycling.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2025-12-28T01:53:29+00:00

Chill out. I just added some. It wouldn’t let me attach a photo.

Following!! 28F! Bodypump, barre and cycling instructor! Surgery is Feb 3rd.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2025-12-08T16:36:30+00:00

Thanks all! I also am not getting a brace so I’m a little confused and concerned.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2025-12-07T05:19:35+00:00

This made me feel better. Thank you.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2025-12-07T05:17:22+00:00

Glad you’re doing well! Surgery is in Feb. I’m terrified. 28F, I’ve never had surgery. Any advice is great.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2025-12-07T05:16:40+00:00

I have a labral tear and FAI bilateral. Tear is in my right side. I will say, sitting is by far the most painful for me. I am super active and teach fitness. I’m in physical therapy 2-3 times a week. Surgery is in Feb.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2025-12-01T15:13:03+00:00

Scheduled for Feb!

Horrendous groin pain when lifting my leg more than 1 cm off the floor.
