Hi I am a 27 year old mother of 2. I have had my right hip fused for 10 years and am looking for some insight into having a THR or Resurfacing within the next 5 years.

I fear that Ortho Docs will tell me that the pain level has to be really bad before anything will be don for me, because I don't have a lot of pain I could probably have my hip fused for another 10 years but I don't think I can stand it anymore.

Hi: I'm posting here for the first time. I am a little over two years post op from bilateral hip resurfacing surgery. I am a ballet dancer. I'm taking class 5 or so days a week and doing well, but I still don't have my complete range of motion back yet. I can do the front-back splits easily, but the side-ways splits are not back completely - I was able to get to 180 degrees and I'd day I'm about 160 degrees. Any suggestions from dancers, martial artists, etc? Thanks

To whom ever may read this, I am new to this sight and not exactly sure how it works. i have read and learned lots of new things from this sight.

I wanted to share my story and maybe just maybe I can get some advice on what to do next.

I was diagnosed with avascular necrosis of the right hip 3 years ago, I was told back then in order to fix the problem with my hip I would need to have Surgery (core decompression). I had the surgery and have been in pain ever since.

I have been told I need hip replacement in both hips. I wonder if it is advisable to have them both done at the same time. And would this be causing pain and numbness in my knees at night while sleeping?

I recently have had some very minor groin pain in my right hip. I play soccer and it doesn't hurt at all when I play, but hurts sporadically here and there as I walk around. I feel it slightly maybe 10% of the time I walk. I went to an orthopedist. He took and x-ray of my hip and said that I have osteoarthritis and pointed out some osteophites forming around my joint in both hips(although I don't notice ay pain in my left hip). He was very doom and gloom about the whole thing. I am scared. I am only 33 years old, fit, thin and very active.

My Father is 69 Years old and had Total hip replacement 2 years ago.

He has now developed heavy Hetrotopic Ossification. I am firstly looking for surgeon who has a lot of experience in Hetrotopic Ossification Surgery.

I am also looking for the best inpatient rehabilitation center, where they can carry out various therapies.

Please kindly give me your recommendations/experiences

I am 26 and have been diagnosed with avascular necrosis of both hips. ive read that alcohol consumption can cause this condition and im worried i may have done this to myself. I drank rather heavily for about 4 years from the time i was about 21-24 or 25--could this be long enough to cause a condition like this so early in my life?

Will I be able to stand up straighter after I have hip replacement?

7 Weeks post of for keyhole surgery - 1 x labral tear burnt off 1 x labral tear repaired - FAI not able to be addressed with keyhole.

I saw my specialist in Christchurch on Monday for my second post of checkup. My muscles have recovered enough from the surgery that I am able to walk mostly without my crutches. Still tender around the incisions and still have quite a bit of post surgery swelling round the hip/thigh area.

Hello,

I had a surgery for a femoral neck fracture about 2 years ago and now I want to remove the 3 screws I have in my leg.

How long it usually takes to recover after this operation? Do I have to wear cruches after surgery? How long I have to stay in hospital?

Thanks a lot,
Daniel, 30-years old male
