I relate completely, I've run marathons and been training martial arts since I was a kid. I had a bad hip injury, doctors never give any options, just surgery. I live in NYC, but watching these videos have helped me to understand my body much better, I've got a torn labrum and believe I have anterior pelvic tilt. I will begin to work to fix it. Congratulations on getting yourself back, now it's my turn thank you :)
This made me cry. A lot of what Katie said resonated with me. I just turned 50. I look younger, but feel older. I've been in groin/hip pain for about 10 years now, with every year getting harder to walk. The pain is so bad I smoke marijuana for relief when I'm at home. I'm a caregiver for the elderly and I can't afford insurance. It's embarrassing and it sucks! So glad Katie has got relief. I watch many videos in hopes one day I, too, will find my miracle. God bless the PT's and everyone who helps and gives hope to us. You really do give people their life back. ♡
Hi AK, sorry to hear about how bad things are for you right now. Here's an idea that will actually be VERY helpful. When smoke marijuana, don't smoke so much that you're totally numb. Smoke enough to take the edge off, and use that time to work on your hip mobility and hip strength. Pick 4 different hip stretches and work on them each session. Be slow and exploratory.
@@Uprighthealth Oh, thank you SO MUCH for responding! I'm blown away! I do try to do more when I don't feel the pain, including stretching more, but then I REALLY feel it after. I will definitely be trying as you have suggested and outlined in your videos. Your channel is life changing and I cannot thank you enough! Much respect and love from The Mitten State.
@@k9m42 Really? Hardly! I've NEVER done drugs in my life until a broken healthcare system forced me to try something I thought I'd never do. And thank GOD there is natural relief. I sparingly use marijuana and just deal with the constant pain throughout the day. Unfortunately I found out this week my femur is dislocated and bones have chipped. I need hip replacement surgery, which I cannot get without insurance. So, go ahead and cast your ignorant judgement on people whom you do not even know.
Thanks for the video! I gave birth to my daughter at 22. Had sever sciatic nerve pain, I couldn’t bend over, lift my leg more than a few inches off the ground. After 3-4 months I saw a doctor and he said it was my back, probably from the epidural. Saw a physical therapist after 6 months and he gave my therapy for my back. After two months he said it wasn’t improving so go get imaging done. After x-rays and MRIs and nearly 10 month, I finally was diagnosed with two types of tears on my hip labrum. My pain is so severe now. I can’t even sit, stand up, walk, etc. without feeling some type of pain. My doctor has recommended me to injections and depending on how that goes, surgery… I’m so nervous. I just turned 23. My husband had brain surgery last year because he has brain cancer. Too much going on.
I tore the labrum in my hip 3 months ago and was on a walker. I finally get to see the orthopedic doctor next week but I’m feeling a lot better. I used PT with strength training and marijuana/cbd for pain management. I’m glad I probably won’t need surgery and as a future doctor I will definitely advocate for people to consider alternative treatment rather than jumping straight to surgical options.
@@umit777. I did have impingement, and the main focus was strengthening the muscles surrounding the area, including the pelvic floor, with a major focus on the external rotators like the gluteus medius and the adductors. I got a lot better and could coach track & field, which helped push me to explore different ranges of motions. That was most helpful because the movement of the femoral head in different planes helps produce synovial fluid. I got a corticosteroid injection a few months ago, and it did help. I am happy to say that I got my mile time under 10 minutes and went on my first hike since becoming injured. I still have some pain, but when I do, I check how my muscles feel and add more exercises to strengthen them. I hope this was helpful!!
Thank you Katie for your video and comments. It is very apparent by some of the comments below, that the majority are pro surgery. What a joke. And to the person below who thinks Katie is being disrespectful to doctors/therapists....you need to re-evaluate your comments. She is actually being very straightforward with her comments which I greatly appreciate. You must be PC. Newsflash....it is OK to disagree with the medical norm of surgery first and actually find an alternative. It is OK to have your own opinion and question the medical community. Geez. Surgery is not always the option. There are many alternative methods that work and do not compromise your health like surgery can. I am so sick and tired of all of the ignorant comments regarding natural ways to heal I could puke. Just like Norse. It appears there are several pansies who want fix it now methods, as opposed to what will naturally heal the body. But, what do you expect....it is youtube. And, BTW, I anticipate a full on attack by all of the ignorant commenters below. Don't care. I simply saw a natural way to heal this issue, the resulting-typical PC negative comments from ignorant people and decided to comment myself. Thank you Upright and Katie. Keep up the great work!
I've had an issue with my left hip since 2017-2018 with flare ups& currently have a flare up&my doctor decided he thinks i have a labral tear&has referred me to an orthopedic surgeon without even sending me for a scan. I refuse to have any surgery being someone that works in the fitness industry & trains to the level of an athlete(knowing well that I could be out for even longer). Its frustrating that people believe surgery is the option for everything when it definitely IS NOT. Surgery doesn't guarantee a cure.. I agree with everything you mentioned in your post 👌🏼
Love hearing this! I am a dancer, and have a similar story, though it hasn't been 2yrs (more like 3mos) but I'm trying to find the right kind of PT which often is exactly what she describes here, but highly physical people need much more. When I got my MRI, result and found out it was a degenerative slight labral tear even my functional medicine doc mentioned surgery (she did also recommend I start with a good PT). I immediately went online, and right away found Upright Health..I felt a real connection to their approach. This story really inspires me....:)
This resonates with me 100%. Going through a hip labral tear and contemplating stem cell treatment vs surgery. The location of the pain (lateral greater trochanter) as well as gluteal pain is making me hesitant towards the surgery. The more opinions you get the more diagnoses seem to be unearthed which creates more confusion. Thankfully this woman is feeling better and I hope one day me and others in these comments can too. Best of luck to everyone.
This is my story too! The only thing different is that I paid for very expensive stem cell injections to avoid the labral tear surgery. But because this really isn't about a painful torn labrum but really because of my body and muscles not working properly, those injections didn't do anything to help. The stronger I get with the Upright Health program, the less pain I have! I'm getting my life and my activity back again! I'm using the FAI Fix, even though I don't technically have FAI, but the exercises and the premise about my very flexible body needing strength work is doing the trick! Thank you to Matt, Shane, Vincent, Josh, Trevor, Mitch and anyone else that I have missed, I am so grateful to have found your channel and your program!
Im a ballet and breakdancer, have had hip pinching issues since high school back in 2014-2015. Recently had core decompression on both hips for AVN. I did a hike last week and pretty sure whatever was causing my hip pinching all these years finally turned into something huge :/ ive instantly lost all my range of motion (i usually can put my leg over my head) and have to use crutches to get around. I already know the docs are gonna say surgery
I can't tell you how this reflects how I am feeling, I NEED to run emotionally, physically but most importantly MENTALLY, here all they want is to operate :-( i just want to run again :-(
You posted this two years ago. Have you had any resolve and/or did your hip heal?? I’m a runner and I’m experiencing the same thing. It’s a life changing injury.
Thank you katie for sharing your story. Completely resonates with me. I was diagnosed with labral tear in my right hip about 12 years ago. i have joint hypermobility but was always able to move without pain. I suffered 2 high velocity pelvic fractures. first when i was 11 and fell through a roof! Then in 1996 when i was 34 years old i was a passenger in a high impact motorway crash and suffered multiple injuries throughout my body including another fractured pelvis. Seemed to recover well eventually but as the years went by i started to feel a catching in my right hip when i flexed and started to become really quite painful. I described it as feeling like a childs doll whose leg had snapped off and in trying to resite it, just could not get the last little section back into the hip ( this is what really used to happen with my disarticulated dolls)! I then started to notice that my hitherto impressive flexibility started to hurt and crossing my legs in a yoga pose became more and more restricted and painful. I work in orthopaedics in a large hospital where i am routinely educating patients on life after hip replacement and all the while suffering in agony myself. I am under the care of one of my orthopaedic consultant colleagues, who diagnosed my labral tear with physical examination and also with an arthrogram. To his credit, he has suggested that he is reluctant to perform an osteochondroplasty on me as he feels it may make the matter worse but states i will likely need a hip replacement in future. To compound matter i now have a really issue is with my opposite hip and excruciating nerve pain which everyone keeps telling me is sciatica but its at front and can suddenly take my balance as the pain shoots down front of hip and thigh and i just buckle. i find i need to try and manipulate my hip back into a position where i can walk again and usually causes me to limp before it settles. I have a constant pain in back on the left hand side just along iliac crest. I was diagnosed with meralgia parasthetica a while back but i feel it has progressed from the original symptoms which were classic for that condition and in in a whole new ball park of pain and dysfunction. Have had physio input with limited results and i simply find that it is taking all my energy to get through working day and by evening i'm in so much pain and exhausted that i can do nothing and weekends are a wipe out. i am very despondent and the radiculopathy in my opposite leg is unbearable. Doctor has prescribed amitryptiline but it turns me into a zombie and i cannot function at work. I am going to give upright health a trial to see if any of the videos help me. I would be interested to know if the situation i have described with nerve pain in contralateral hip and limb has been experienced by anyone else. For the record i feel my outer thighs struggle to hold on to the bones. they burn and ache so much and i understand the descriptions that matt describes he experienced with his hips as it does indeed feel like they are rotting from the inside and being eaten by termites! my groin aches all the time and feels like i have hot burning knives sticking into it. i kind of at my wits end with it all so hoping that some of the advice and exercises help me on a road to some sort of recovery.
@@gialana850 not how, but how did the treatment go that you mentioned in your reply, what treatment was it that helped? as i sound like i have same issues as you and I'm at my wits end too with it. Thanks
@@gialana850 thanks you for taking the time to reply to me x I appreciate this, I will try those exercises you mentioned, I pray yours will get better, what ever route you have to go, its terrible we left to suffer like this all because of covid, you wouldn't let an animal go on like that in pain,. shows how bad the health care is in, that it can not cope.
I reread this three times because it's so similar to what I'm living with right now it's as if I wrote it and cannot believe someone else is in this too. I'm hyper mobile too. I also just discovered a tear in S1/L5 . My left groin pain, runs into thigh. Burning is horrible around the hip bone and into pelvic area. My leg clicks, it feels exactly like you describe it, like I just need to pop my leg back in and cannot. (The dolls 😏) The muscles or tendons are not soft either. It started as what I thought was sciatica. A full colon was blamed for the nerve pain in my leg. I requested a MRA to check the tear. Impingement has got to be there. It's a mess and I'm not able to work. I do have pelvic floor tilt too which I need attention too, it's expensive without insurance. This is a life stopper for sure. I haven't been to any body to help me and don't know what I should or should not do. But I will keep going. I have too😔. Thank you for sharing your story 🌹
This makes me hopeful too. I had hip operated and it was great, but I managed to re-injur the hip so now I'd love to do this without surgical procedurs. Would love to know if on this day this lady's hip still is ok? And what kind of leisures she had in her hip cartilage?
This is me to a T, I swear. 49 yr old USMC veteran, with BKA prothesis. Always strong as hell, but can't shake this on my good leg side. Need to know more!
Great stuff! I have the same issues, but even tried the surgery - with poor success. Germany is still a "surgery-country", and searching for help quite complicated. With your videos (and some of your "collegues"), it helps me so much more, than any doc, yet. Thanks!
I recently injured something in my right hip. I'm not sure if it's a labral tear or something else. I have huge knots on the side of my hip and the pain reduces when I roll on them with the ball. But I also have a shortened hip flexor on the inner front part of my hip. I'm currently doing ice, heat, ball rolling, stretching, and strength training. I'm also supplementing with Dr. Christopher's complete tissue & bone (both the capsules and ointment) and megadosing with MSM.
I live in Chicago area and have been dealing with pain after missing last 2 steps at work. Lower right iliolumbar pain and left hip bursitis with labral tear at 10-11 oclock. Same story have gained 20#'s and can't even walk a block. I am 52 years old and am scared I won't enjoy my retirement and future grandkids. Please provide me with exercises. I have been to several doctors, chiropractors, injections, and PT's.
How does strength training help eliminate the bone to bone contact which docs are telling me will lead to sooner hip replacement? I’m concerned this testimonial is marketing.
The exercises any person has to do varies HUGELY. It's impossible to say what will help YOU without ever seeing how you move. But you can check out our hips playlist for tons of ideas: bit.ly/uhhipPL
Wow Thank you..I went and am going through all that you said. I am using shots, rest and have not done the surgery yet and may not. I want to do this first. I appreciate you sharing the emotions that we go through also with this, I have the tear, and bilateral hip impingement.
I’m going through the beginning stages of trying to figure out what’s weak, etc. I’ve been extremely frustrated at times. I wish the in-person or private consultation options were still available. It’s taking me too long to see progress.
Yeah I mean this is helpful but doesn’t technically fix the anatomical problems. It’s kinda survivorship bias. Many people can cope with this issue, but the ones who really are bad will breakdown and get surgery. Kinda a victim blaming going on with this channel honestly.
I'm glad the woman was able to find relief. Since her concern was post-surgical down time, it is unfortunate that she did not opt for surgery when it was recommended. As it was, she spent far more time inactive while avoiding surgery than what would have been required for post surgery recovery.
I'M AN ICU nurse x 22 years.51 yr old.busy busy w/ 2 kids.. I have NO IDEA exactly how I tore hip but I also have a labral tear in my shoulder.. zI soldiered my way thru last 2 years at work somehow, covid and all. But I cant do much of anything now,and have no income. Both tears are on same side- THE SIDE I SLEEP ON. 😴😳I'M MISERABLE.I can barely get in my SUV..I was "OFFERED" the CART in Target that you drive thru the store- & I started crying hysterically.(I'm not fit like you, although I used to be! b I'm still a 18 hr day person,pta, dance, cheer, bkball,track,girl scout busy mom). Played bkball and softball, cheer, drill team.. I could handle 3 risers under my step in step class! ( back in the day🤣) .We nurses are stronger than we look, esp in ICU , where we turn, pull, lift ,assist pts ON VENTS All day.Total care. So, my ? = hip or shoulder first? As a bonus, my left great toe is fractured- from limping I guess! I'm afraid of the recovery,as I only have my girls & parents..TY so much for this video!
Thanks for sharing! I'm going through the fai stuff now! Had a mri and everything! One doctor says its fai and another thinks I have a torn labrum! This sucks bc I'm am a very active person and this injury came out of nowhere. Vids like this give me a since of hope that I can overcome this like I've overcome many this in life!

I've had pain for almost 2 years. I've seen 7 doctors and 2 physical therapists. They did not know why I was in pain. The second pt I went to is great. He pushed on my hip and instant tears. It hurt so bad. Thats when I decided I wanted an mri. The results were that I have a torn labrum. I am still hurting. Doctor ordered a 2nd mri with contrast. To me its just pain. Wait. Wait and more waiting. 2 years of pain I m sure it isn't going to heal itself.
So this is for people local to them? Or buy program for 150.00? In the program its 60 videos how do we know which ones to do is there a set program to follow?
I have knee and hip pain I also don't wan t to under go a operation. My 3 cousin s also have joint issue. 2 had operations other one taking pills for joints like me. I am the most active of the 3 with running, football and basketball. Due to my knee and hip I can't play sport. Every time I practice basketball I have knee pain. I am trying to strengthen my body.
Make sure you explore stretching first (given your background). Inner thighs, hammies, and quads...they've probably been badly neglected - but if you add that stretching work to your training regimen, you'll very likely notice huge gains. :-)
Is Upright Health a chain company? I am wondering if the one near me would do the same things as this one did for you. I also have a hip labral tear or something similar.
When i first got injured like 5 years ago all the doctors i saw couldn't even diagnose me properly. Now I finally get an appointment with an ortho in a couple months to see what's really going on.. Sucks ass man
I haven't been diagnosed yet, but i think i have hip pain after giving birth to my third child, at first only felt it when i first wake, and now in the last 2 days it has got so bad that it hurt to walk, sit to long or squat/bend over, im going to doctor soon, i dont want surgery or injections or none of that
Just an infomercial for Upright Health. Yes, PT and continuing exercising at home will keep the pain down and get your muscles stronger. But you must maintain that lifestyle. The hip won't actually heal from it however.
I've had a torn labrum for the past 10yrs. I skipped the shots, skipped the surgery, skipped the pain meds. Being an extremely active person it was a blow to my ego and habits. I quit the weight room for calisthenics, I quit protein shakes for a carnivore diet and learned down from 220 to 185.
Guys thank you for those kind of videos, there are important too and keeping my spirit up. Any plans to open Upright Health branch in Poland soon :) Thank you for sharing your content. Yours videos are great help.
No plans for Poland at this time. We were thinking of doing a trip to Europe sometime soon, but we need to know if enough people want to see us out there!
@@Uprighthealth That would be great if there was enough people interested. I'm interested for sure. If not hope you can come just visit, we have some cool stuff to see.
i am struggling w/pain and inability to walk, stand or function. my left hip labra has shredded and my right labra torn. my right leg continues to collapse and i have fallen over 25times since march of 2020, causing lots of other injuries/damage to other body parts. i have been in pain 24/7 since oct of 2018, and need serious help, please help me?! im lost and wont be able to ise my legs much longer period.

Hi im Ashi from Ipswich and my wrist click whenever i turn them slightly it is pain free and freaks people out i can do it multiple times still pain free
Yeah but what if you’re unable to even get a minute down with these exorcises when you’re in excruciating pain? Unless in my case surgery is needed with my severity
@umit777. my problem is a f.a I femebral acetabular impingement and ya I got huge improvement lately work out and training f everyday...I m too active and mountain biking seem to be my problem....
Is having sex permitted while having hip labrum? if it is ok to have sex while having hip labrum, which positions are advised? if there is any article on this to share?
Good video, BUT , if you watch Upright Health videos there is basically ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in ANY of their videos on how to reduce the pain/resolve the issue.
I've had surgery on two joints (wrist and knee) after trying non-invasive treatments for over a year. Ended up wishing I'd done the surgeries sooner because I got 100% restoration after both. But I understand one should try conservative tx before surgery. Just saying I'm no longer so convinced that surgery is some bad thing. Modern medicine is amazing and I was fortunate enough to take advantage of it. Now I'm trying to deal with a labral tear and intense bursitis. Conservative measures not doing much so far.
I had a hip with necrosis that was ignored for 5 years. Oh I had PT- etc. WASTE OF TIME. Had a replacement. Other than the nerve damage that was caused due to improper positioning during the surgery, the hip is fine and I no longer have a dying bone in my body.
@@elizabethsimpson7103 Prolotherapy injection for hip labral tear, beats surgery all day if your labrum isn't completely torn, the salicylic acid creates the necessary immune response to heal, the labrum is hard to get to without injections spurring the immune response, it's not possible to manually manipulate labrum viscerally / hands on. Ptolotherapy also is effective for shoulder labrum and cervical instability
I think this is just an ad for upright health. Lebral tear ain't going to go away. She'll need surgery soon for it or a hip replacement. I love for her to be right, but she's not going to get by as the tear worsens. This ad might pay for her op though.
Interesting that she dismissed surgery because of downtime, but carried on in pain anyway, how does she know the surgery to fix the torn labrum wouldn't have solved the problem definitively
I'm with you Terri! But the Upright Health program DOES WORK! I have less pain than before, and the stronger I get the less pain I have. Try it, you have nothing to lose but pain, and you can get your life back again!
Getting your hip chopped or trying a non-surgical approach when you have nothing to lose but pain...yeah, really tough. But hey, doctors know everything, right?
Surgery is awesome. In my case, after two joint surgeries I felt like those areas were 18 years old again. Sure, try conservative measures first. But modern medicine is awesome. I'm trying to fix a torn labrum w/ non-invasive interventions, but if they don't do anything for me, I will certainly consider surgery. @@priscilaminott3640
@@imcoleyourenot8391 You're wrong. The research literature shows that FAI surgery fixes the problem and people have excellent outcomes, with a ~95% return to sport rate. I'd be curious what youtube bros recovery rate is or how many of his "patients" end up needing the surgery.

Yes yes yes… we are all vulnerable to injuries and then sad to say you can’t walk ..and sorry 60 isn’t old .. strength for all
This resonates with me 100%. Going through a hip labral tear and contemplating stem cell treatment vs surgery. The location of the pain (lateral greater trochanter) as well as gluteal pain is making me hesitant towards the surgery. The more opinions you get the more diagnoses seem to be unearthed which creates more confusion. Thankfully this woman is feeling better and I hope one day me and others in these comments can too. Best of luck to everyone.
I have same pain pattern.
EMBARRASSED!!! ME TOO! THEY offered me the "drive urself cart" in Target last week...I cried for an hour!
Awwww😢🤗
This is my story too! The only thing different is that I paid for very expensive stem cell injections to avoid the labral tear surgery. But because this really isn't about a painful torn labrum but really because of my body and muscles not working properly, those injections didn't do anything to help. The stronger I get with the Upright Health program, the less pain I have! I'm getting my life and my activity back again! I'm using the FAI Fix, even though I don't technically have FAI, but the exercises and the premise about my very flexible body needing strength work is doing the trick! Thank you to Matt, Shane, Vincent, Josh, Trevor, Mitch and anyone else that I have missed, I am so grateful to have found your channel and your program!
Im a ballet and breakdancer, have had hip pinching issues since high school back in 2014-2015. Recently had core decompression on both hips for AVN. I did a hike last week and pretty sure whatever was causing my hip pinching all these years finally turned into something huge :/ ive instantly lost all my range of motion (i usually can put my leg over my head) and have to use crutches to get around. I already know the docs are gonna say surgery
Thanks for sharing her story! So relatable except I have OA on left hip. Not giving up though 🙏🏼
I can't tell you how this reflects how I am feeling, I NEED to run emotionally, physically but most importantly MENTALLY, here all they want is to operate :-( i just want to run again :-(
You posted this two years ago. Have you had any resolve and/or did your hip heal?? I’m a runner and I’m experiencing the same thing. It’s a life changing injury.
Thank you katie for sharing your story. Completely resonates with me. I was diagnosed with labral tear in my right hip about 12 years ago. i have joint hypermobility but was always able to move without pain. I suffered 2 high velocity pelvic fractures. first when i was 11 and fell through a roof! Then in 1996 when i was 34 years old i was a passenger in a high impact motorway crash and suffered multiple injuries throughout my body including another fractured pelvis. Seemed to recover well eventually but as the years went by i started to feel a catching in my right hip when i flexed and started to become really quite painful. I described it as feeling like a childs doll whose leg had snapped off and in trying to resite it, just could not get the last little section back into the hip ( this is what really used to happen with my disarticulated dolls)! I then started to notice that my hitherto impressive flexibility started to hurt and crossing my legs in a yoga pose became more and more restricted and painful. I work in orthopaedics in a large hospital where i am routinely educating patients on life after hip replacement and all the while suffering in agony myself. I am under the care of one of my orthopaedic consultant colleagues, who diagnosed my labral tear with physical examination and also with an arthrogram. To his credit, he has suggested that he is reluctant to perform an osteochondroplasty on me as he feels it may make the matter worse but states i will likely need a hip replacement in future. To compound matter i now have a really issue is with my opposite hip and excruciating nerve pain which everyone keeps telling me is sciatica but its at front and can suddenly take my balance as the pain shoots down front of hip and thigh and i just buckle. i find i need to try and manipulate my hip back into a position where i can walk again and usually causes me to limp before it settles. I have a constant pain in back on the left hand side just along iliac crest. I was diagnosed with meralgia parasthetica a while back but i feel it has progressed from the original symptoms which were classic for that condition and in in a whole new ball park of pain and dysfunction. Have had physio input with limited results and i simply find that it is taking all my energy to get through working day and by evening i'm in so much pain and exhausted that i can do nothing and weekends are a wipe out. i am very despondent and the radiculopathy in my opposite leg is unbearable. Doctor has prescribed amitryptiline but it turns me into a zombie and i cannot function at work. I am going to give upright health a trial to see if any of the videos help me. I would be interested to know if the situation i have described with nerve pain in contralateral hip and limb has been experienced by anyone else. For the record i feel my outer thighs struggle to hold on to the bones. they burn and ache so much and i understand the descriptions that matt describes he experienced with his hips as it does indeed feel like they are rotting from the inside and being eaten by termites! my groin aches all the time and feels like i have hot burning knives sticking into it. i kind of at my wits end with it all so hoping that some of the advice and exercises help me on a road to some sort of recovery.
how has Upright been working? Any progress?
@@gialana850 hello
Just wondered how did you get on? What course of treatment did you do? Thanks
@@gialana850 not how, but how did the treatment go that you mentioned in your reply, what treatment was it that helped? as i sound like i have same issues as you and I'm at my wits end too with it. Thanks
@@gialana850 thanks you for taking the time to reply to me x I appreciate this, I will try those exercises you mentioned, I pray yours will get better, what ever route you have to go, its terrible we left to suffer like this all because of covid, you wouldn't let an animal go on like that in pain,. shows how bad the health care is in, that it can not cope.
I reread this three times because it's so similar to what I'm living with right now it's as if I wrote it and cannot believe someone else is in this too.
I'm hyper mobile too. I also just discovered a tear in S1/L5 .
My left groin pain, runs into thigh. Burning is horrible around the hip bone and into pelvic area.
My leg clicks, it feels exactly like you describe it, like I just need to pop my leg back in and cannot. (The dolls 😏)
The muscles or tendons are not soft either. It started as what I thought was sciatica. A full colon was blamed for the nerve pain in my leg. I requested a MRA to check the tear. Impingement has got to be there. It's a mess and I'm not able to work. I do have pelvic floor tilt too which I need attention too, it's expensive without insurance.
This is a life stopper for sure. I haven't been to any body to help me and don't know what I should or should not do. But I will keep going. I have too😔. Thank you for sharing your story 🌹
This makes me hopeful too. I had hip operated and it was great, but I managed to re-injur the hip so now I'd love to do this without surgical procedurs.
Would love to know if on this day this lady's hip still is ok? And what kind of leisures she had in her hip cartilage?
Thank you for making this video Katie! 🙏🏼
This is me to a T, I swear. 49 yr old USMC veteran, with BKA prothesis. Always strong as hell, but can't shake this on my good leg side. Need to know more!
Great stuff! I have the same issues, but even tried the surgery - with poor success. Germany is still a "surgery-country", and searching for help quite complicated. With your videos (and some of your "collegues"), it helps me so much more, than any doc, yet. Thanks!
Was waren deine Probleme nach der OP?
I recently injured something in my right hip. I'm not sure if it's a labral tear or something else. I have huge knots on the side of my hip and the pain reduces when I roll on them with the ball. But I also have a shortened hip flexor on the inner front part of my hip. I'm currently doing ice, heat, ball rolling, stretching, and strength training. I'm also supplementing with Dr. Christopher's complete tissue & bone (both the capsules and ointment) and megadosing with MSM.
Ive been doing these exercises at home for a week. Is it normal to be in more pain afterward?
Thanks 🙏 you so much! My story too! So happy for you and inspired
I live in Chicago area and have been dealing with pain after missing last 2 steps at work. Lower right iliolumbar pain and left hip bursitis with labral tear at 10-11 oclock.
Same story have gained 20#'s and can't even walk a block. I am 52 years old and am scared I won't enjoy my retirement and future grandkids.
Please provide me with exercises. I have been to several doctors, chiropractors, injections, and PT's.
How does strength training help eliminate the bone to bone contact which docs are telling me will lead to sooner hip replacement? I’m concerned this testimonial is marketing.

What were the exercises she was given?
The exercises any person has to do varies HUGELY. It's impossible to say what will help YOU without ever seeing how you move. But you can check out our hips playlist for tons of ideas: bit.ly/uhhipPL
Wow Thank you..I went and am going through all that you said. I am using shots, rest and have not done the surgery yet and may not. I want to do this first. I appreciate you sharing the emotions that we go through also with this, I have the tear, and bilateral hip impingement.
Isn’t strengthening exercises PT?
I’m going through the beginning stages of trying to figure out what’s weak, etc. I’ve been extremely frustrated at times.
I wish the in-person or private consultation options were still available. It’s taking me too long to see progress.
Check out FitAlign Posture Training.. online videos you can do at home that work. ruclips.net/video/mYKHC4GFMuc/видео.html
But how did it heal the torn muscle? You did not mention this. So all the exercises you're doing is hiding the labrum tear and not fixing it, right?
Yeah I mean this is helpful but doesn’t technically fix the anatomical problems. It’s kinda survivorship bias. Many people can cope with this issue, but the ones who really are bad will breakdown and get surgery. Kinda a victim blaming going on with this channel honestly.
I'm glad the woman was able to find relief. Since her concern was post-surgical down time, it is unfortunate that she did not opt for surgery when it was recommended. As it was, she spent far more time inactive while avoiding surgery than what would have been required for post surgery recovery.
Except surgery wasn't guaranteed to help her problem
So you still have tear(s) even though you are running etc??
I'M AN ICU nurse x 22 years.51 yr old.busy busy w/ 2 kids.. I have NO IDEA exactly how I tore hip but I also have a labral tear in my shoulder.. zI soldiered my way thru last 2 years at work somehow, covid and all. But I cant do much of anything now,and have no income. Both tears are on same side- THE SIDE I SLEEP ON. 😴😳I'M MISERABLE.I can barely get in my SUV..I was "OFFERED" the CART in Target that you drive thru the store- & I started crying hysterically.(I'm not fit like you, although I used to be! b I'm still a 18 hr day person,pta, dance, cheer, bkball,track,girl scout busy mom). Played bkball and softball, cheer, drill team.. I could handle 3 risers under my step in step class! ( back in the day🤣) .We nurses are stronger than we look, esp in ICU , where we turn, pull, lift ,assist pts ON VENTS All day.Total care. So, my ? = hip or shoulder first? As a bonus, my left great toe is fractured- from limping I guess! I'm afraid of the recovery,as I only have my girls & parents..TY so much for this video!
Bless your heart. So sorry.
Sir Hip Labrum tear problem please help me
Thanks for sharing! I'm going through the fai stuff now! Had a mri and everything! One doctor says its fai and another thinks I have a torn labrum! This sucks bc I'm am a very active person and this injury came out of nowhere. Vids like this give me a since of hope that I can overcome this like I've overcome many this in life!
May I know How’s it feeling now? I’m facing same thing and my doctor suggested Surgery! 😢

I've had pain for almost 2 years. I've seen 7 doctors and 2 physical therapists. They did not know why I was in pain. The second pt I went to is great. He pushed on my hip and instant tears. It hurt so bad. Thats when I decided I wanted an mri. The results were that I have a torn labrum. I am still hurting. Doctor ordered a 2nd mri with contrast. To me its just pain. Wait. Wait and more waiting. 2 years of pain I m sure it isn't going to heal itself.
Hey what did you do for labrum? How is your hip now
So this is for people local to them? Or buy program for 150.00? In the program its 60 videos how do we know which ones to do is there a set program to follow?
could you please tell me your symtoms, I have been in agony since Novemeber, waiting now for X-Results but am not confident.
What’s the best way to get started? A in person consult? Or online? We live in San Diego and don’t want to have to do surgery.
Wish I found this video before I did the hip arthroscopy T__T. Is there a Upright Health program available in the Bay Area?
How are you now? İs surgery worth it
I have knee and hip pain I also don't wan t to under go a operation. My 3 cousin s also have joint issue. 2 had operations other one taking pills for joints like me. I am the most active of the 3 with running, football and basketball. Due to my knee and hip I can't play sport. Every time I practice basketball I have knee pain. I am trying to strengthen my body.
Make sure you explore stretching first (given your background). Inner thighs, hammies, and quads...they've probably been badly neglected - but if you add that stretching work to your training regimen, you'll very likely notice huge gains. :-)
Is Upright Health a chain company? I am wondering if the one near me would do the same things as this one did for you. I also have a hip labral tear or something similar.
When i first got injured like 5 years ago all the doctors i saw couldn't even diagnose me properly. Now I finally get an appointment with an ortho in a couple months to see what's really going on..
Sucks ass man
Good luck. I was just diagnosed via MRI which was a great step forward for me and really lifted my spirits to get a diagnosis.
What did you do. How are you now
I haven't been diagnosed yet, but i think i have hip pain after giving birth to my third child, at first only felt it when i first wake, and now in the last 2 days it has got so bad that it hurt to walk, sit to long or squat/bend over, im going to doctor soon, i dont want surgery or injections or none of that
Sounds like tail bone
Just an infomercial for Upright Health. Yes, PT and continuing exercising at home will keep the pain down and get your muscles stronger. But you must maintain that lifestyle. The hip won't actually heal from it however.
Isn't what she's describing... physical therapy?
I've had a torn labrum for the past 10yrs. I skipped the shots, skipped the surgery, skipped the pain meds. Being an extremely active person it was a blow to my ego and habits. I quit the weight room for calisthenics, I quit protein shakes for a carnivore diet and learned down from 220 to 185.
Why did you not surgery?
Mine is due to a car accident 2 years ago. Hit an elk on the way to work. Nothing has worked for me.
Oh, Gosh. This is me now.. I feel so hopeless, desperate 🙈😢😢 I am still young, sexy, fast and now i am nothing like that 😔 I want it all back! 🙏🙏🙏

I had a labral tear and ended up getting surgery. Problem solved
David Hudson for now
I've had surgery on two joints (wrist and knee) after trying non-invasive treatments for over a year. Ended up wishing I'd done the surgeries sooner because I got 100% restoration after both. But I understand one should try conservative tx before surgery. Just saying I'm no longer so convinced that surgery is some bad thing. Modern medicine is amazing and I was fortunate enough to take advantage of it. Now I'm trying to deal with a labral tear and intense bursitis. Conservative measures not doing much so far.
I had a hip with necrosis that was ignored for 5 years. Oh I had PT- etc. WASTE OF TIME. Had a replacement. Other than the nerve damage that was caused due to improper positioning during the surgery, the hip is fine and I no longer have a dying bone in my body.

@@elizabethsimpson7103
Prolotherapy injection for hip labral tear, beats surgery all day if your labrum isn't completely torn, the salicylic acid creates the necessary immune response to heal, the labrum is hard to get to without injections spurring the immune response, it's not possible to manually manipulate labrum viscerally / hands on. Ptolotherapy also is effective for shoulder labrum and cervical instability
I think this is just an ad for upright health. Lebral tear ain't going to go away. She'll need surgery soon for it or a hip replacement. I love for her to be right, but she's not going to get by as the tear worsens. This ad might pay for her op though.

Interesting that she dismissed surgery because of downtime, but carried on in pain anyway, how does she know the surgery to fix the torn labrum wouldn't have solved the problem definitively

There is nothing called fixing lebral tear without surgry, it's called luving without pain with a lebral tear
Hmmm. Listen to doctors/surgeons or go to a couple of RUclips bros. Tough call.
Getting your hip chopped or trying a non-surgical approach when you have nothing to lose but pain...yeah, really tough. But hey, doctors know everything, right?
Surgery last resort. You’ll NEVER be the same.
Surgery is awesome. In my case, after two joint surgeries I felt like those areas were 18 years old again. Sure, try conservative measures first. But modern medicine is awesome.
