I take hip health super seriously! In 2009 I was diagnosed with a torn labrum in both hips (its the coating around your hip bone that keeps them stable). I have to work hard to create a stable core all day long.
Ive been to the hip doctor a few times over the years to make sure my hips do not tear anymore. I apparently was born with this and finally was properly diagnosed by a wonderful Sports Medicine doctor.
I do not need surgery and I will try hard to stay away from surgery. My Hubby told me to watch the surgery on Youtube. Ive never looked at any of the videos. YUCKKKKKKK The doctor scrapes your hip bone and then anchored the bone with something. I’ve heard it can take up to 6 months to two years to fully recover. Some have lost feeling in their thighs or other parts of their legs. UGH
Ive joined many facebook groups to hear what others go through with any hip pain. Hips are so abused and used over a lifetime. Take good care of your hips! Give them a hug with a hip hugger 🙂
Stay motivated to keep active and healthy! Your body will thank you.
