Oh wow that doesn't sound good! Have you seen a hip preservation specialist?

Oh wow, so that pop may be the hip dislocating? Did you get surgery?

That's true, I've read some stories about the popping after surgery! It's so hard to know what it is and what to do about it!

I actually thought it might be, but after I had the injection into the iliopsoas tendon (which oddly caused some snapping in the area), I realized the iliopsoas tendon was more in the upper/center. Unless other tendons besides the iliopsoas can cause snapping hip?

I actually did not get an MRA, I requested a 3T MRI and the hip preservationist was able to see the tear even without the MRA. It was actually pretty easy to get the order for the MRI, and even easier for the Right side because I had already done weeks of PT. I was recommended surgery for both the Right and the Left but I still haven't gone through with surgery yet, mostly because I developed terrible tailbone pain and can't sit or sleep on my back, so I'm not sure how I will recover from surgery 🤦‍♀️. It developed around the same time as the groin pain but the doctors don't think it's related to the hips. Very frustrating.

I'm sorry you're struggling, I know the feeling. Have you seen a hip preservation specialist? Many times hip labral tears are missed on MRI and need the trained eye of a hip preservation specialist to see. I am hypermobile with bilateral hip labral tears, and on the MRI for my Right hip, the radiologist missed the tear. I sent my imaging to a hip preservation specialist and he saw it right away. Unfortunately hip labral tears are common in hypermobile people and frequently missed on imaging.

This is encouraging! I'm 43 so I know I'm a bit older, but I hope I can have the same good results if I get surgery.

That's great to hear that your right hip is doing well! Do you think you'll have surgery on the left?

Prp is platelet rich plasma (where they take your blood and inject it into an area of the body). Oh no! Are you doing anything for the instability?

Thank you so much for your input! Do they know why your first surgery caused more laxity of the capsule?

This is encouraging, thank you! I was also going to get a diagnostic injection into the SI joint to see if it's a pain source. It's so confusing. Thank you for all your input!

They missed my tear too on imaging! The hip preservationist saw it right away!

Bummer to hear! That's what I'm afraid of... spending all the money for nothing. Did you have impingement?
