4 years of hip/groin pain. Help!
Hi guys,
I did end up doing the labrum surgery again about 2 months ago. Turns out the labrum had calcified somewhat after the last surgery, and I also had a bone spur forming on the edge of the acetabulum. The surgeon shave those down and then replaced that area of the labrum with a piece of my IT band. Fun stuff! I do have less pain now in the anterior portion of the hip now (though still have some), so it was probably more likely it was labrum and not a hernia. Unfortunately it hasn’t really done anything for my posterior pain, even with all the PT and massage I have been getting in the area. So I am somewhat better, but not back to normal. The surgeon isn’t quite sure why I still have pain in that area. Might try a cortisone shot right on the exact spot into the muscle/tendon on my next visit.
