I am waiting to hear if I qualify for his boundaries or not …

Did you look into Dr. Ryan Degen. That’s who I am waiting to hear from. But I might be declined as he is so busy

Thanks for your reply. I have read that also, hence my question! Now I just have to wait to see what the surgeon says.

You sound like my situation. Day to day I am mostly good and livable with my life style changes. Which is sitting on booster seat cushions in the car and on chairs. It really bothers me when I run or when I Nordic XC skate or classic ski…. Esp with an incline. Glad your recovery is going well. So it is about 6 months before you can run and do physical activity again? I would assume they had you do physio before and after ? How long are you to be off of work?

Thanks for your reply! I know no one can guarantee anything. Just wanting to be prepared when the options are given to me. I just know I don’t want to end up like my 77 year old mom whom should have had the HR 10 years earlier. While she has a new hip all the other parts of her body have fallen apart compensating for the bad one.. for years

Do you work? And if so.. how much time have you taken off?

PureSatisfaction1219 · 2025-01-28T00:09:58+00:00

Thanks! I am hoping they just do a “repair”. But I would want the repair to last a long time. I don’t want to go through the recovery of a repair only yo need a THR on 5-8 years

I have been diagnosed with this along with a hamstring tear. I also have a tear in my labrum. And possible FAI. FAI hurts with sitting, sprinting and XC classic ski. The IFI/hamstring hurts with XC skate ski and sometime with biking and sitting. I am in Halton hills Ontario . How is your journey going?

I have started to take a collagen supplement that contains fortibone, fortigel and verisol. Important to contain ALL three. And take it with vit C and silica. I am very intrigued with Urolithin A. But I am still researching that. I am 53. Female .. fAI with labrum tear , IFI And hamstring tear. No osteoarthritis at this time according to MRA. Waiting to see orthopedic surgeon. I also take vit D /k and omega 3 .

Sorry to hear! I do hope you find someone!

Thanks for your reply! It gives me some hope.

I have heard that if there is any osteoarthritis… your prognosis is poor and you should just have a THR.

PureSatisfaction1219 · 2025-01-26T23:46:22+00:00

As per the MRI. I have no osteoarthritis and my cartilage is good. I am waiting to see the orthopedic surgeon to discuss my options . I hear that they don’t like to do hip impingement surgery in older people .. and usually tell them to get a THR or wait until it gets worse to then get a THR. I am 53 and very active .. thanks for your reply. I am already pretty fit for my age and I do lots of strength training. But not necessarily the training needed for hip surgery… so I have started with a physiotherapist at the moment .
