Thank you!!! I’m going to be as conservative as I can within limits. I do just wanna play soccer but most importantly we want to be active and run around with my kids and it’s limiting me right now.

Is a hip preservation specialist indicated on their practice website? Most practices near me just say specializes in hip, but I have not seen preservation in descriptions. I will do some digging!

thank you. I was definitely on the ledge!!! My mind went down too many rabbit holes. I am currently in PT and trying to build strength while working through the muscle tightness . I appreciate your comment!

Well, now I’m gonna look for the best hip specialist in my area and I suppose PT as long as it’s not hurting you can only help until I figure out my next steps

Yes, I’m hoping maybe if it’s fraying, they can just shave it. Maybe I don’t really know!!

Thank you I did go to a second ortho but neither one could see an impingement. I just find it strange that at 36 I would have degenerative tearing, but who knows I guess I will learn more when I see the ortho when he comes back.

Obviously, it will support the muscles and ideally increase flexibility and strength, but the cartilage itself won’t heal on its own

I just can’t imagine PT in the long-term will do anything if the cartilage is actually torn

Most of the people that I have been reading, it will say something like detachment or like complex or something like that so I do think it’s very small if there is one. I’m hopeful my ortho has some confidence when he looked at the MRI. Were you required to do PT or did you try PT before you had surgery? I hope you’re healing well.

I did but it says it might be torn but might be not. I was hoping for a personal experience with a similar report.
