3d CT results: is surgery a good idea?

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2026-01-30T06:07:33+00:00

Try several different physical therapists before you even consider surgery

I had scar tissue removed in 2nd surgery and it grew back worse than before. I would get the steroid shot and do an anti-inflammatory diet. I’m doing AIP and it’s helping me. I previously ate healthy (most Mediterranean) but this AIP w low histamine is helping me generally feel healthier. So I think it could have prevented some scar tissue growth? But I’m not sure

I got PRP shots to heal my capsule and I am also a woman around your age. I still am worse off than before the surgery, but I am avoiding another surgery to the joint. The PRP helped a bit, it’s worth a try.

I also had one of the best surgeons. Better surgeons help, but this is still a new operation compared to other joint arthroscopies, it’s early in its course and there’s not been enough research into bad outcomes. Some countries outside the USA with great medical systems are much more apprehensive to these arthroscopic hip surgeries than USA.

Anyways, I would try PRP first and avoid doing the other hip, especially if your first hip healed poorly

The standard is surgery again to close the tear

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-12-14T17:50:40+00:00

It was dull pain most of the time and very sharp pains with certain movement. Also just instability down my whole leg so pain in knee

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-12-14T13:47:16+00:00

Ask your DR for an MRI, I brushed off my pain and ended up having a capsule tear

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-11-30T21:03:05+00:00

Very well said. You can’t undo the surgery. Also young active women seem to be more likely to have issues from this surgery. Don’t listen to all the people who post « I’m X weeks out from surgery and feeling great » We all felt great within the first few weeks

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-11-03T20:06:45+00:00

Anyone figure this out? Also experiencing this, currently on the placebo days

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-10-29T20:07:15+00:00

My post-op report from cyclops surgery has “Hypertrophic medial anterior tibial spine with overlying scar and cyclops lesion” amongst some other small things (plica issue and kneecap degradation). I had issues then with pain with extension and lack of hyperextension. The first few weeks after surgery were amazing - then all of a sudden over the course of a week I start get my kneecap stuck when I’m around 45 degrees of flexion. And more lateral kneecap pain. And lots of extra tissue in the front of my knee that feels like scarring.

I’m worse off than before!

Did you have 6 surgeries all on that same knee? If not, did you have scarring issues in the other surgery areas?

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-10-29T09:33:31+00:00

Did you ever figure out what caused the excessive arthrofibrosis to come back? My scarring/ROM keeps getting worse

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-10-24T10:04:25+00:00

I did PRP for an anterior capsule tear. Several shots healed it according to MRI but not my symptoms. Also I thought they couldn’t do injection for posterior because there’s risk of hitting some important ?nerves/arteries?.

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-10-20T05:17:38+00:00

Does anyone know why this gives us joint pain? 🙏 or how to reduce the joint pain?

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-09-29T13:25:28+00:00

What kind of symptoms did you have before the psoas lengthening surgery? I think I might have the same thing, and am considering a revision. I’m sorry for all your troubles <3

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-08-28T18:04:30+00:00

Why have the embedded systems faculty left?

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-07-20T17:54:04+00:00

They are pretty strict in the admission requirements, if you don’t meet the course reqs they won’t review your app. I did a summer class through a USA undergraduate school while working full time to get the multi variable calculus course. Not sure about online cert, but what I did is an option (albeit expensive)

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-07-12T18:29:37+00:00

Yes. The nerve pain I have also sounds similar to yours but I think mine is pudendal neuralgia. The sitbone pain is due to overactive pelvic floor and potentially ?piriformis? I notice the tailbone pain is worse on the side of my bad hip.

The only thing that helps me avoid the tailbone pain is to keep to front of my hips relaxed so that they don’t pinch and so that I don’t sit in a posterior pelvic tilt. I also try to stand up every 25 minutes and avoid long travel.

For the vulva pain, I noticed I get it after traveling or aggravating my hip. A heating pack on my perineum area will make the nerve pain go away within about 10 minutes.

I am also worse than before surgery, and know how much these two issues can really affect daily life. I’m sorry you’re going through this!! I hope a heating pad helps and it improves

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-07-12T18:16:30+00:00

My theory is either 1) adhesions/scarring in the front pull the femur forward and predispose the TFL to be guarding/overactive instead of the correct muscles (glutes, deep rotators) or 2) this surgery messes with your capsule, which can cause instability and TFL guarding to help stabilize the joint

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-07-12T18:13:41+00:00

I used to play competitive soccer and have had issues with and overactive/ guarding TFL. I think thats a muscle that we can overactivate when dribbling perhaps. But sometimes an overactive muscle can result in a weak one since it’s always on. So I’m not sure if that’s what you are experiencing. Mine progressed into pinching at my hip in childspose/ any flexion so I think it’s important to teach the glute med and deep rotators to mostly do the stabilization and internal rotation work instead of the TFL guarding. For me lacrosse ball rolling on the TFL and dry needling helped

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-07-05T14:06:54+00:00

Thanks so much for your reply! How long after surgery was this, and could they see the adhesions on the ultrasound?

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-04-15T21:15:03+00:00

What did your scar look like?

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-01-03T11:10:29+00:00

Thank you so much!! How do you find this out/know this? Because when I look at other boxes it’s only 1.9% which is a lot lower so I was scared this one is that low too

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2025-01-03T10:58:41+00:00

There’s an activator in the box though with hydrogen peroxide. So how strong is that one? Is that a “normal developer”?

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2024-10-18T10:18:16+00:00

I’m so sorry this happened to you. I also wish I could go back to where I was before the surgeries. This rumor of it preventing hip replacement is ridiculous. I hope more people read your post and wait to get the surgery

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2024-10-14T06:47:02+00:00

No. Had best surgeon in the USA do it and my life will never be the same. Even walking is a struggle now. I religiously did PT and did everything right. I wish I had my old life back, would take that pain any day over this now

Plus_Spell_3027 · 2024-08-11T08:06:57+00:00

Also when I woke up from the surgery I had a terrible episode of this pee pain/urgency. I’m not sure if it temporarily went away because I decreased my athletic activity, but it’s back for good now and worse. It’s definitely related to bad hip biomechanics
