    Feb. 14, 2024 update. I had a hip resurfacing procedure done to my left hip back in 2015 and so far all has been amazing. However, I can now begin to feel ever so slightly some stiffness and subtle pain that occurs after extensive use via surfing, snowboarding, working out etc. Lastly, it was the best decision I ever made to have the resurfacing procedure done and I would highly recommend anyone experiencing issues with their hips to research their options and have the procedure done sooner than later.

  • @cbuxton64
    @cbuxton64 8 месяцев назад

    I just had this yesterday. In the UK. I have both hips for bursitis. 6months Right hip joint for arthritis 4 months and both knees. 12 months. Also shoulder joint. Last about 2 years. All injections have to be done 2 weeks apart. But it takes 2 mins and barely no pain. We are not allowed to drive for 24hrs after the injections.

    • @TowsurferNetwork

      Im glad to hear but realize that eventually, u will need to have surgery. I would not recommend putting it off as the pain will become so unbearable to walk and even sleep. Best of luck! Cheers

    Hi Eric! You gave me the courage to have my first hip cortisone injection at age 51. It was life changing! I’m scheduled for my second one next week. I’m wondering how many you had? I know I need a hip replacement from years of competitive figure skating. I have a labral tear as well as moderate osteoarthritis etc. Did you get a hip replacement yet? I was supposed to get a hip scope years ago but never did. I think I can put it off for maybe another year or so.

  • @graceneville628
    @graceneville628 6 лет назад

    Yeah I have hip displasia and something wrong with my muscle. I’ve had many injections and cortisone shots. They aren’t as bad as this video makes it look. I’ve had 2 mris and going in for a ct scan. I’m 14. So if I can handle it you all can too!!❤️

  • @MaddyWalker98
    @MaddyWalker98 6 лет назад

    I’ve had this done several times with anesthesia and with gas, no big deal BUT once it wears off, the pain seems worse than before. Has anyone else had this happen?

    • @pamrosenberry7575
      @pamrosenberry7575 10 месяцев назад

      Once the anesthetic wore off, it was terribly painful. I wondered why I was sent home with Tylenol #3. Now I know. Pain was much better by day #2.

  • @Bruuski
    @Bruuski 7 лет назад

    I had this today. Took less than three minutes start to finish. In the ten minutes they sat me down in a recliner to recover, have a cold drink, three more patients came out. Pain level....about a three. Didn't hurt after. Piece of cake. Six hours later, it is starting to get sore now. Very Survivable. I broken my arm in seven places few years back, snapped off shoulder ball, spun it 180%. I now rate all of my life pain to that... Lol.

    • @mkxmusic
      @mkxmusic 7 лет назад

      Glad to hear that the hip is 100%. Sorry that the original hip arthroscopy didn't resolve the issues but great to hear that you are back! I think I'll need an arthroscopy to fix a labral tear and I'm concerned about it. Nice to see others get back to 100%.

  • @mmead9293
    @mmead9293 7 лет назад

    It hurts like hell!! I had it done 3 days ago! They told me it would pinch a little! Ha! When I finally recovered from the pain I left the department with totally soaked hair from perspiring due to the pain! It takes a while for my body to numb up- that may be the reason I was InSo much pain... maybe there was some other reason mine was so painful...waiting for the results!

  • @ericakiskalian2636
    @ericakiskalian2636 7 лет назад

    Update: I ended up having my hip resurfaced instead of doing a full replacement. Best decision I ever made and today I feel 100%.

      @Nicole Lollipops Thanks for asking...me too! What is your pain level like? I had physical therapy this morning and I am still sore. The therapist told me you really had a bad fall....really. I know that and I could not do all of the exercises. I will ask again on Wednesday is that normal to still be tender.

  • @leemoknows
    @leemoknows 8 лет назад

    Doing this scares the crap out of me lol. I need surgery, but I'm not really old enough. Does the shot still hurt even with the local anesthetic?

    • @Arborealis0
      @Arborealis0 8 лет назад

      The shot itself doesn't hurt. You feel pressure but nothing major. I was singing a song and looking away to distract myself because I heard horror stories, but nothing much happened. It's more uncomfortable than a vaccine because it takes longer, but that's it. What you need to do, however, is take a T3 and Advil or some combination just as you get out. Your body takes a moment to react and when the freezing comes out, that's when it hurts. It'll hurt for about 6 hours. The next day, you'll feel the same as before the hip injection but you'll have a bruise on your leg. Each day after that, you will feel better and better. I couldn't walk without canes or a walker before they did this. Now I'm walking around like nothing. I can't go as far as other people because my hip is still broken but it doesn't hurt, and I can sleep through the night. It's really worth it. It doesn't work for everyone, but you should try. Just you have to talk to your GP about it first. it causes osteoporosis so maybe not the best idea unless you know you are going for surgery. I'm on a wait list for surgery, so I'm getting these shots. The parts are trashed anyway. There is another injection - HSA or something like that. It costs $600 but doesn't cause the damage. If you aren't going for surgery, I know that's expensive, but maybe spring for it instead. No damage will be good in the long run.
