Appreciated hearing your story and would love your perspective on my current situation post op. I received a left hip labral repair with 2 anchors and FAI Cam deformity. Prior to surgery, I tried extensive rehab with both a chiropractor and physical therapist. I decided to receive the surgery because it was starting to get to me mentally during work, specifically, I developed compensations and pretty bad back spasms/pain. I'm now just over 7 weeks post-op and feel very restricted, tight and pretty much always have left lower back pain. I am primarily concerned about my left lower back pain and compensation patterns. For example, I tried walking for 15 minutes yesterday and felt the muscles of my upper back hurting. It seems like the left lower back area starts to compensate and it travels up my back. Feeling very overwhelmed and considering seeing a physiatrist. I'm in physical therapy and my hip flexor soreness has reduced substantially but is still somewhat there.
Love to hear you can get surgery, do everything essentially wrong and then eventually get better. A lot of research or forums on the internet are filled with horror stories. You have a great attitude. Gives me hope and also encourages me to give pt a nice long runway before considering surgery.
Going through a very similar story now. As you said in the end of the video. People who are super analytical and hyper aware, can actually slow down their recovery. I’m just shy of a year after FAI surgery. Over the past 2 weeks I made some pretty positive strides. But up until this point, it’s been a rough ride I’ll say the least. My surgeon is great. But unfortunately, the recovery plan is non existent. So I was left to fend for myself and my physio to kinda piece the puzzle together
It's tough to hear about your journey, but I'm glad to know you're making positive strides! Recovery can be such a rollercoaster, but keep pushing through-it sounds like you're on the right path!
Thank for the information! You said that your complete recovery was after 2 years.. but did you have surgery on both hips at the same time? Because my doctor first did it with my left hip, and then to the right one. I supose that if you do it one by one it takes more time, no? Thank you!
Thanks for sharing! If you had followed the proper rehabilitation protocol right after surgery, how long do you think it would have taken for your hip to be pain-free, instead of the 2 years it took in your case?
@@digitalobserved my patients are usually there at 6-8 months so that’s what I would have hoped. But also what we know now and how we manage it is different to when I had it done 15 years back :)
Very similar story for me, though I’m female, started at 22 with a right side groin strain, years of ‘therapy’ … top surgeon in 2020 at 45, though he did forget to mention the ‘dysplasia’ (FAI 80.9 alpha angle cam, bone shave, labrum anchors, angry 3’oclock tear at psoas notch) .. top osteopath for a year, 4 steroids over 2 years for psoas tendinopathy, rehab for ‘weak’ psoas… 3 years strict rehab, didn’t really get any better, At the age of 50 (this year) after almost 30 years I’d had enough so I had my right side total hip replacement, psoas was stuck behind the bone & short, not weak & I had ishiofemoral impingement, hamstring issue, instability … last week I had my left total hip replacement, no arthritis or issue with the femoral head but again long term FAI on the left, femoral neck was really ‘thick’, calcified labrum this side, calcified bursa, chronic tendinopathy on the greater trochanter Funnily enough I was looking at your rehab for hip replacement programs & wondered if it would be something I would get good results from as a previous FAI dysplasia & bilateral hip replacements for non arthritic reasons
Thank you for sharing your journey! It sounds like you've been through a lot. I'm glad to hear you're exploring rehab programs; finding the right one can make such a difference in recovery. Wishing you all the best on your healing journey!
So when i dont have much pain do you recomend surgery? Fisiotherapy helped a lot. I have some pain and stiffness sometimes and snapping, clicking but still doing squats deadlifts etc.
I'm currently trying 3 weeks post surgery for fai and full thickness labral tear. I'd first went to physio when I was 18 [I'm 25 now] and over the years, particularly the last year or so I have been very frustrated with the restrictions in weight training and sports. Surgeon said due to the amount of years I'd seen no improvement surgery was the correct course of action. What I have struggled with daily the last couple of years is pain in my lower back (S1) and my physio had told me this is all linked with the hip problem. I'm hoping this can get sorted as I can see this being a bigger issue than the hip. Do you have any advice with the issue around the back pain which is associated with my hip? I know I have changed the way I walk and my posture to relieve pressure from the "bad" hip over time too.
Hey hey, sorry hard to give too much specific advice on here. All i can say though is the presence of some back issues is fairly common, unsure why due to causation or correllation but there is some link, like you say sometimes worse than the hip. I would defo get decent physio input to help as much as you can and don't be adverse to pain releif to help in the short term too

This is amazing.
Also you killed me when you said “worlds fastest substitution ever” 😂
Mate it was tragic. Not sure the ball left the centre circle

My pleasure and thanks for watching! Sorry for the late reply
@ no need to apologize, you do great work. I’m ramping up pt and keeping my fingers crossed in month 2 now.
@@dkupsey22 Whoop keep it up and keep me update here on the channel :)
Will do. From your experience a with a lot of these. What’s a typical timeline for pt? I’m grateful for your information.
@@dkupsey22 Post op I would give 10 months at least

Do you think if you had known what you know now you could’ve avoided the surgery?

Do you think you’re gonna have to have a THR in the future? Or can the labral repair last a lifetime?
Maybe, who knows? It is a bit stiffer now over ten years since but it feels fine, but you never know!
