Curious if anyone has a small business of turning smartphones into dumpphones for people, with a simple OS like the wisephone, but with a one time charge rather than a subscription like dumb wireless?
I want to trust my PT but I'm also afraid to further damage my hips. Labral tears on both sides and mild dysplasia. On week 3 of 6 of my new PT. I was in pelvic floor PT for a year before my MRI showed the tears and I got sent to an ortho pt. The hip exercises we're doing are causing mild flares consistently and I'm rotating ibuprofen and Tylenol most days now. I'm not a candidate for scope surgery and have to wait for a THR in 20 years when I'm 50. I'm at a loss. PT seems to be my only option, but how can I know if I'm making things worse or better? This injury has taken so much from me and I feel so hopeless. Any advice is appreciated
I have an almost 2 year old. Tears on both sides that cause groin pain. I want to get pregnant again in about a year.
Have any of yall avoided surgery, gone on to have more babies, and do ok pain-wise? I'm fully invested in PT and eating an anti-inflammatory diet, and in my situation I think that's all I can do for myself at present.
Some more about my situation: I'm avoiding surgery because my lifestyle doesn't suit it (carrying toddler around frequently) and my pain is usually only a level 3 most days. That being said, I'm scared of how the pain might get worse with another pregnancy. I think my first pregnancy is what caused the tear(s) for me. My hip dysplasia is why I was prone to the injuries according to my doctor. I'm new to this hip problem world so if I'm using wrong lingo or anything please inform me.
The dysplasia is another reason I'm avoiding surgery, because the PAO surgery seems insane to me and I'd probably need that one too to make the arthroscopies worthwhile.
Any pregnancy or birth or postpartum experiences are appreciated thank you!
Hi sahms. I'm looking for stories of other moms who are struggling or have struggled with hip labral tears from pregnancy or birth. Please share your experiences with me, good/bad/resolved/ongoing whatever it is. I need community after struggling with this alone for so long.
My situation if you're interested: I'm 19 months postpartum and I had severe SPD while pregnant. I continued to exercise and walk through the pain up until birth and I believe this is how I got my tears. I could barely walk the day I went into labor. Everything I read on reddit said SPD pain would go away after the birth, but for me my pain only got worse. The pain is in my inner groin left and right sides, basically my side bikini lines. I'm in pain if i walk for more than a few minutes. I used to be a long distance runner and haven't been able to run without suffering since before the SPD started. I did a full year of PT without improvement, so I went back to my OB and they sent me to an ortho. I finally got an MRI and the findings were a hip labral tear on the right, but likely on both left and right (insurance messed up and the MRI was only done on my right side, though my pain is on both left and right.) I can't even imagine going through a surgery recovery with how hands on my motherhood is. I have the most perfect barnacle baby who is basically always in my arms. I'm so overwhelmed and just want to heal so I can be active again and not be in daily pain. I have a follow up appointment this week with the ortho. Would love to hear any stories of anyone who can relate.
