It’s crazy because before I was diagnosed, I found myself doing all of these just as a relief of pain. It’s crazy how your body somewhat knows what motions promote healing
If you're skeptical, this man is giving you free physical therapy advice that most people would pay hundreds of dollars per session for. These exercises are stellar! Almost instant relief.
I injured my hip in my early 40s. I tore the ligament in the front of my hip in a restaurant. It took me a year to walk without pain. Now I am 60 and this injury has started to bother me. Dr. David, you took thr pain away in 20 minutes on this video. I cannot thank you as I have health insurance with a 2K deductible which prevents me from getting any medical attention. Thank you Dr. David you are a blessing!!!!!!
@joelspliffbeaudette3750 hi I am perfectly fine. I no longer have the pain or feel the popping. I am doing some of this about once a week. This man is a Godsent!!!!
Ten years ago I was registered for a hip replacment operation. The waiting time was very long. I decided to heal myself. My cat started laying on my hip, that was hurting. Purring, (vibrating) warming my sore hip. It helped! I started doing yoga for seniors. Gradually I was able to walk again. I had injections, but the cat helped more. It was the cats idea! Now, I need to keep my diet, and walk and exercise, in water or on dry land to make my hip working. The exercises I learned on youtube keeps me moving. No operation!
Thank you for the video! I have a labral tear from a horse accident i had in 2004. It acts up periodically. I was thinking i was going to have to get a hip replacement b/c the pain wasn't going away, but the exercises have helped tremendously. Love your videos!!!
Suffered a traumatic fall in Paris last August. PT failed, finally had an MRI last week. Superior labral hip tear. Found your video and it gives me hope that I can remediate my hip to mitigate symptoms. Not excited about any type of surgery. You do a fabulous job of describing the issue, and the whys behind the importance of doing the exercises with correct body mechanics. Well done!!
Thank You.. The best video and explanation i have ever come across. you are Gods Gift. The body is a wonderful God made machine and you give us hope without surgery... Stay Blessed Forever... 18 years later and you bring me hope.
I’ve had 3 labrum tears, 2 unsuccessful surgeries. My last one they did a reconstruction it’s seems like it worked I’m a week post op. Do your research before surgery friends it’s hard recovery.
Thank you for this. I've had a tear for a few years and every once in a while I will do something that sets the pain off...and it lasts a long time. I'm happy to find you. Many of the exercises I find online make the pain so much worse. Yours do not. Thank you. I like your gentle way of explaining too.
I’ve watched so many labral tear videos and have never seen anyone doing anything like this. so simple but SO effective. I don’t even know if a tear is what’s going on in my hip and groin but I know whatever it is will benefit from getting my joints lubricated and the muscles to provide support effectively. THANK YOU 🙏🏾

After 6 months of visits to chiropractor, acupuncture & PT I stumbled onto your video in my search for a possible explanation of why I have continued pain. None of these people ever said “possible labral hip tear, get an eval” to me. My symptoms fit perfectly. Thank you so much for your wonderful video. Hip eval is set for 4-1. Until then( and after) I’ll be taking your advice. Thank you.

Thank you so much for these videos. I am dealing with a bad hip labrum tear. I love the way you describe the diagnosis and the exercises. I am currently taking Physical Therapy. But your videos are giving me other exercises to work on.
Hi David, thank you so much for this video. I am 47, have always been athletically active but have been held back by hip pain for the last18th months. Your other videos on hip labrum tears explained the symptoms and cause of this so well. It matched my symptoms perfectly. I found this video after a skate session, which I cut short due to pain and was expecting to suffer the effects of for a few days. The exercises had an amazing effect and my pain was reduced drastically that same day! I used the glutes technique and was always able to walk without a limp for the 1st time in ages! I am going to commit to these exercises and am very excited to see the results. Thank you so much 🙌
Hi Threeofeight197! We are so happy to hear this exercise has been working well for you! If you're interested in learning more about how to naturally heal a torn hip labrum, here is a playlist for you! Check it out: “Hip Labrum Tear Help” ua-cam.com/play/PLJVIPiFvv1mZNugkhV8zHHPUu4PVh3vUy.html
I'm glad I found your video. I was diagnosed with impingement and bone spurs about 8 or 9 years ago. Told by ortho I didn't need to do anything until I'm in pain all the time. Fast forward to 2 months ago. Loss on range of motion and now pain in my glutes. Your videos completely explain why its there. I quit working out because I was afraid to make it worse. Now I know I need to get back to it to get stronger and squatting is ok. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
This is exactly what I need, I recently re injured my hip labrum, I had stem cell injections back in 2016 and after a few months I was feeling better and only randomly had issues with pain. I recently was working in the garage on a project on the floor that had me squatting down for longer periods of time and this re injured my labrum. I will start on these exercises today!
Hey Dave, we're so sorry to hear about your hip labrum injury! The stem cell injections can be very helpful but it's only a temporary fix. It's important to address the muscle imbalance and these exercises are a good start to get you on the road to recovery. We have a playlist that you can use. You can access it here: “Hip Labrum Tear Help” ua-cam.com/play/PLJVIPiFvv1mZNugkhV8zHHPUu4PVh3vUy.html We'd love to hear how you are doing as you progress.🙌 Please take care!
Thank you so much for this video. When the orthopedic surgeon recommended physical therapy for a complete labrum tear, I was shocked. I am in pain now and you want me to go to therapy? The copay for each session twice a week adds up. I came across your video and will start on these exercises today. Thank you! 😊
Hey JH we are so sorry that you are having to deal with a hip labrum tear. We understand how painful this is to deal with and treat. We are glad that you came across our videos! Below will be a link to our hip labrum tear in its entirety for you: “Hip Labrum Tear Help” ua-cam.com/play/PLJVIPiFvv1mZNugkhV8zHHPUu4PVh3vUy.html Start with one or two exercises, beginning with the smallest range of motion and the lowest intensity. As you feel stronger, you can gradually increase both the range of motion and intensity. It’s best to do these exercises every day throughout the day. Aim to tire out the muscle without losing form or control. Consistency is key. Always avoid working through pain; soreness and mild discomfort are normal, but pain is not. Listen to your body but also be patient with the healing process. A tear can have a lengthy recovery time, so keep going even when you feel like giving up! We hope this helps! Please keep us posted on your progress 🙌🏽
So glad this came up in my recommended videos. I am fairly certain that a car accident a few months ago caused a labrum tear on my left hip (where the seat belt crossed over). My doctor took a 'do nothing' approach - as in, use ibuprofen for pain & wait it out, rather than any type of PT. I'm a martial artist and a move that was once very easy for me (drop stance moving into a bow stance) has become near impossible. Just doing the first few exercises helped me to really zero in on where the pain is originating. I was doing some of this already, but more as a response to pain than a proactive series of movements. Thank you for this information!
About 15 years ago my mother had bell's palsy. While it take several months, she did recover about 90% of her facial animation (though she was much older). I discovered your channel when I took up ballet as a hobby in my 30s. I felt i was really starting to make progress when i ended up injuring myself with a labral tear that is unfortunately a chronic condition. Everyone has something sooner or later. I try to focus on what my body can do instead of its limitations, which might help you as well.
Thanks for your video cant wait to do these exercises. I had no traumatic injury but over the last few months i just thought my left groin was tightning up. Kept doing stretching after working out but recently the pain got real bad, could barely walk. Went to and orthopedic did and ultrasound and determined it was not a tendon/ ligament issue and he said the labrum looked inflamed he injected the labrum..instant temporary relief so thats when i figured out i had a torn labrum. Definitely want to avoid sx. So going to be squeezing my butt cheeks like crazy from now on. Thanks again terrific pt recommendations.
That is wonderful to hear Sasha! We are so glad to hear this helped, keep up the great work! 🙌🏽🍑 “Hip Labrum Tear Help” ua-cam.com/play/PLJVIPiFvv1mZNugkhV8zHHPUu4PVh3vUy.html Keep us posted on your progress 😊
No, if the tear can't heal without surgery but PT can make it asymptomatic. And if it doesn't bother you, then surgery isn't really necessary. Cartilage takes months/years to heal.
I was in pain for 15 years before I had surgery. Don't wait too long to have surgery or everything around it becomes extremely weak. Had surgery a year ago and it saved my life! Honestly, the chronic pain was debilitating.
Thank you Doctor David. I was told that I need hip replacement but was skeptical as I'm still recovering from a spinal fusion done 2 years ago. All your videos are really so helpful and inspiring. Thank you. God bless

THANK YOU!!! Thankyouthankyouthankyou! Because of you I haven't given up on a PT solution to my hip pain. Doc recommended surgery - put me through a few weeks of PT that aggravated my hip more than helping, so I ended up getting a cortisone shot and just walking away from it. I didn't want surgery but didn't know how to help my hip. THIS is helping.
I have a hip impingement with labrum tear. My doc said from my hips not forming correctly due to being a breech baby! 🤯 I'm stopped my physical job and resting helped tremendously and now physical therapy is killing med and the pain is coming full on back. I cannot believe this is happening!
Thank you so much and you described my issue perfectly! After listening to you I figured out I was over exercising it by a lot, I will come back to this video when I got more time! Thanks so much and I think there's hope!!!!!!!

Its been 9 months now after being diagnosed and i still have slight aches and pain everyday even while just simple walking gonna start doing this and hopefully will be able to do basic things without aches.
Thank you so much. I wish you were located in New York City. U are fantastic in explaining this condition. I started following your recommended exercises. They also said I have severe arthritis. 😩
I really appreciate the videos. You explain everything so well and very clear. I can't thank enough and I hope you know how much you are helping people with these videos. I have recently done MRI and found out that I have a small anterior labral tear. I love activities and stay active throughout the year. I usually play tennis, cycle and do weight training and I do not want to give up on any of them since they are my passions. Any advise you can give on this as to can I still play tennis and cycle at least once a week and keep on going with my weight training? I would really appreciate if you can help clarify this for me?
All this advice looks marvelous. I’ve now watched about four different videos of yours, but you keep addressing things referring to the pain being toward the front my pain which is severe when I put weight on my left leg is in the back towards the left. I have had three separate falls over the last year and a half, always landing on that side so it is seeming to me logically that my problem is the opposite of what you’re describing. I don’t know if I’ve expressing this well and I don’t know how to get input or insight about this.
Your advice to work out the glutes in isolation has SAVED my hip. Muscle imbalance is real. I really do think, per your recommendation, that overly activated forward muscles pull the bone too forward into the socket, causing the tear. Like the Dr. says in the, work out the glutes and pull the hip ball back! Thank you, doctor. Surgery is not needed when your body's biomechanics are balanced properly.
@@joelspliffbeaudette3750 Still keeping with the exercises and still doing great. I also added in joint distraction with bands and I'm much better in the hips. Thank you.

@@LizaLavolta- You'd be right, at least for me. It's been almost a year since I injured it and very little progress. What type of weight training did you do?
All kinds, but I use bands to 'activate' my glute on the injured side that doesn't activate properly due to my hip. I also train my legs unilaterally now so I can individually train each side.@@lindseyasbury2047 I have no pain, but haven't reversed the injury. It is a lot better though and I have continued in strength. I gave up on PT people. They didn't help. Eventually I will get an MRI

I am definitely starting these tomorrow. Have a bad tear on the right side of the hip. It's so painful, and medication doesn't really work.. I had one 5 years ago on left hip . It was so bad I got a hip replacement in the end after 3 years of pain . I am not athletic or had injuries, just bad luck, really. Tks for this video

Can these exercises help if you have a severely frayed labrum? This came on so fast, and I’m shocked. I’m recovering from major foot surgery and a fall on my back. Can’t have surgery now, so I hope these exercises do the trick. Thank you so much.
I'm sure I have a hip labral tear, but I have no pain when my hip is in the right position. When it goes out, I can barely walk. Otherwise, it feels perfectly fine. I have been going to the gym, swimming and doing ballet regularly. Should I be strengthening or just working on keeping it moving? When should I start strengthening?
Thank you so much for sharing these! I really appreciated your explanation of which muscles to feel vs just doing the movements. 💯 I'm quad dominant, right glute is visually smaller than the left. Pain is in the right hip. All the muscles in and around the hip are in a state of contracture.
This is great. I had back surgery , laminectomy for right sciatic after surgery sciatica shifted to left. I also have a torn labrum L hip. I do get glute ache and some radicular calf stuff. Is it safe for me to do these post laminectomy? Have you heard of anyone having sciatic like symptoms from a labral tear?

@epmanualphysicaltherapy Thank you for sharing so much. I’m tired of hearing the doc tell me there’s nothing I can do but take meds for pain and possibly have surgery. Your exercises helped me better than anyone the two pt rounds I’ve had. These exercises also give relief right after I’m done, so I know now I have a way to stop hurting. I am going to keep going with them! Thank you! Are there any movements to avoid while healing? It seems like I’m always messing up my progress and my hip goes back into pain from the simplest chores.
Thank you! This is very encouraging! I haven’t gotten to my Ortho, but, pretty sure I have a torn labrum. When I drop into a squat my right hip joint will seize up. Sometime I can’t even stand up straight for a few minutes until I work it out. When I go for walks it will be ok and then it starts becoming painful, to the point I can’t move. At that point I extend my leg behind me until i feel the flexor stretching just to the point of pain. my foot is flexed and toes on the ground. At this point I start wiggling my heel back and forth keeping toes anchored. The action is similar to your “ fidgeting “ exercise. After the gentle stretching and wiggling back and forth I feel the pain subside, the impingement release and I am able to slowly make my way back home or on my journey. Tbh, I was afraid if I went to an orthopedic surgeon they would want to perform surgery….but, If I can heal this on my own with these exercises, I would MUCH rather go that route!. I also have bad knees and had a PRP in one and udlillical cord stem cells in the other with wonderful results! Thank you again for this video!
@@joelspliffbeaudette3750 I ended up having the hip replaced a year ago. Turns out there was a lot more going on in there besides a torn labrum. It needed to be done. Feeling much better now.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your teaching, I have pain in my right hip only ,how do I know if I have a labrum tears, I do not think that I have a tears, could you explain a little more on labrum tears, thank you. Ferdinand
Thank goodness I found this… I feel pretty bad on that sit bone last November. It hasn’t healed. I’m not the person to hit up doctors either unless I’m dying, literally. I was wondering why my left hip was not getting better as I can’t even hike up the mountain this year without my leg not wanting to lift. Granted I was carrying a shotgun on my hunt. So, wrote all of your advice down and stop doing the yoga as it’s not helping. Thanks AGAIN UA-cam and Dr El Paso! I fixed my blown out right heal on my own ( broke left heel) now 2 years later I have a torn labrum. Hitting 48 is for the birds:/
Hey Chenoa, We're so sorry to hear about your fall last November that caused injury to you sit bone! It's also unfortunate that you broke your left heal.

David, this video is awesome! I have a question. Are those exercises also helpful for patients that pass arthroscopy surgery for labrum tear (anterolateral in 90deg range, femuroacetabular impingement)? Thank you for a great job! Peter
Hey Peter! Absolutely! These exercises would be great to ensure proper alignment of the hips. If the hips are in proper alignment, the labrum will have less stress being put through it. Hope this helps!
Hey David. Thank you for fantastic responds! I will go for arthroscopy surgery to fix my left labrum damaged by femuroacetabular impingement (CAM side) by November 16. I got this from sitting job (40 hours per week) when Gluteus muscle got too week and unbalanced with front muscles. I will follow you exercises to strengthen my Gluteus butt muscle. I will not load my leg after surgery at all (using both crutches). I appreciate your advices that absolutely make sense! Let see how will go after surgery, but maybe I will use an option for consultation. I will keep in touch. Thank you again Dave. Best. Peter
@@peteradamus9648 hello Peter 👋 i have been diagnosed with similar condition and wondered after reading your explanation, How are you feeling nowadays after making this comment? Thank you for sharing your experience 🙏
I'm going to do these. I have a torn labrum, osteoarthritis and bone spurs in my right hip. I supposed to be scheduled for hip replacement surgery in 3 months. I swim, bike, hike a lot and can't stand the idea of surgery. I'm 72 and in excellent condition other than the hip pain.
It’s crazy because before I was diagnosed, I found myself doing all of these just as a relief of pain. It’s crazy how your body somewhat knows what motions promote healing
Me too! The human body is amazing!
I agree!!!
Agreed, and I'm actually wondering if this is what I'm dealing with rather than a bone-on-bone situation.
ITS GOD !!!!!
Hey , how are you after the diagnosis? Did you get any surgery done? 😊
If you're skeptical, this man is giving you free physical therapy advice that most people would pay hundreds of dollars per session for. These exercises are stellar! Almost instant relief.
I went from fit to immonilized. Been in physio and on meds for weeks. Did this yesterday and experiencing a remarkable relief.

I injured my hip in my early 40s. I tore the ligament in the front of my hip in a restaurant. It took me a year to walk without pain. Now I am 60 and this injury has started to bother me. Dr. David, you took thr pain away in 20 minutes on this video. I cannot thank you as I have health insurance with a 2K deductible which prevents me from getting any medical attention. Thank you Dr. David you are a blessing!!!!!!

Now, I need to keep my diet, and walk and exercise, in water or on dry land to make my hip working. The exercises I learned on youtube keeps me moving.
No operation!

Suffered a traumatic fall in Paris last August. PT failed, finally had an MRI last week. Superior labral hip tear.

You do a fabulous job of describing the issue, and the whys behind the importance of doing the exercises with correct body mechanics. Well done!!
Did you ever end up having surgery?
Thank You.. The best video and explanation i have ever come across. you are Gods Gift. The body is a wonderful God made machine and you give us hope without surgery... Stay Blessed Forever... 18 years later and you bring me hope.
I’ve had 3 labrum tears, 2 unsuccessful surgeries. My last one they did a reconstruction it’s seems like it worked I’m a week post op. Do your research before surgery friends it’s hard recovery.
I thought I'd send the pic of the brace. Oh well.
I have had 2 failed shoulder labrum surgeries and a failed hip labrum surgery I feel your struggle. I hope that you are closer to healing now.
Hello 👋 I hope you are feeling relief! Did your reconstruction work?
I am glad I found this, did the exercise and felt immediate relieve from shooting pain!
That's fantastic to hear! 😁
Thank you for this. I've had a tear for a few years and every once in a while I will do something that sets the pain off...and it lasts a long time. I'm happy to find you. Many of the exercises I find online make the pain so much worse. Yours do not. Thank you. I like your gentle way of explaining too.
How are you feeling nowadays after making this comment? Thank you for sharing your experience 🙏
I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My tear is degenerating my hip and they tell me I will need a hip replacement someday.
Have you continued doing these exercises and if so how are you feeling?
I’ve watched so many labral tear videos and have never seen anyone doing anything like this. so simple but SO effective. I don’t even know if a tear is what’s going on in my hip and groin but I know whatever it is will benefit from getting my joints lubricated and the muscles to provide support effectively. THANK YOU 🙏🏾

After 6 months of visits to chiropractor, acupuncture & PT I stumbled onto your video in my search for a possible explanation of why I have continued pain. None of these people ever said “possible labral hip tear, get an eval” to me. My symptoms fit perfectly. Thank you so much for your wonderful video. Hip eval is set for 4-1. Until then( and after) I’ll be taking your advice. Thank you.

Hi David, thank you so much for this video. I am 47, have always been athletically active but have been held back by hip pain for the last18th months. Your other videos on hip labrum tears explained the symptoms and cause of this so well. It matched my symptoms perfectly. I found this video after a skate session, which I cut short due to pain and was expecting to suffer the effects of for a few days. The exercises had an amazing effect and my pain was reduced drastically that same day! I used the glutes technique and was always able to walk without a limp for the 1st time in ages! I am going to commit to these exercises and am very excited to see the results. Thank you so much 🙌
What kind of skate session? Im 46 have hip pain too and have been playing hockey (roller and ice) for 30+ years

I'm glad I found your video. I was diagnosed with impingement and bone spurs about 8 or 9 years ago. Told by ortho I didn't need to do anything until I'm in pain all the time. Fast forward to 2 months ago. Loss on range of motion and now pain in my glutes. Your videos completely explain why its there. I quit working out because I was afraid to make it worse. Now I know I need to get back to it to get stronger and squatting is ok. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

This is exactly what I need, I recently re injured my hip labrum, I had stem cell injections back in 2016 and after a few months I was feeling better and only randomly had issues with pain. I recently was working in the garage on a project on the floor that had me squatting down for longer periods of time and this re injured my labrum. I will start on these exercises today!
Hey Dave, we're so sorry to hear about your hip labrum injury! The stem cell injections can be very helpful but it's only a temporary fix. It's important to address the muscle imbalance and these exercises are a good start to get you on the road to recovery. We have a playlist that you can use.

Thank you so much for this video. When the orthopedic surgeon recommended physical therapy for a complete labrum tear, I was shocked. I am in pain now and you want me to go to therapy? The copay for each session twice a week adds up. I came across your video and will start on these exercises today. Thank you! 😊

Start with one or two exercises, beginning with the smallest range of motion and the lowest intensity. As you feel stronger, you can gradually increase both the range of motion and intensity. It’s best to do these exercises every day throughout the day. Aim to tire out the muscle without losing form or control. Consistency is key. Always avoid working through pain; soreness and mild discomfort are normal, but pain is not. Listen to your body but also be patient with the healing process.
A tear can have a lengthy recovery time, so keep going even when you feel like giving up! We hope this helps! Please keep us posted on your progress 🙌🏽
I’m 14 and told I should not be having hip pain but just from doing one set of all of this stopped the popping thank you!

@@jahiemaustin6864 I’m now out of sports for 2 months I got 5 weeks left
So glad this came up in my recommended videos. I am fairly certain that a car accident a few months ago caused a labrum tear on my left hip (where the seat belt crossed over). My doctor took a 'do nothing' approach - as in, use ibuprofen for pain & wait it out, rather than any type of PT. I'm a martial artist and a move that was once very easy for me (drop stance moving into a bow stance) has become near impossible. Just doing the first few exercises helped me to really zero in on where the pain is originating. I was doing some of this already, but more as a response to pain than a proactive series of movements.
Thank you for this information!

Really great explanation and loved the explanation of what happens with a labrum tear using the skeleton at the start! Bravo :) and thank you
I just want to thank you for these videos!
About 15 years ago my mother had bell's palsy. While it take several months, she did recover about 90% of her facial animation (though she was much older). I discovered your channel when I took up ballet as a hobby in my 30s. I felt i was really starting to make progress when i ended up injuring myself with a labral tear that is unfortunately a chronic condition. Everyone has something sooner or later. I try to focus on what my body can do instead of its limitations, which might help you as well.
How are you feeling nowadays after making this comment? Thank you for sharing your experience 🙏
Thanks for your video cant wait to do these exercises. I had no traumatic injury but over the last few months i just thought my left groin was tightning up. Kept doing stretching after working out but recently the pain got real bad, could barely walk. Went to and orthopedic did and ultrasound and determined it was not a tendon/ ligament issue and he said the labrum looked inflamed he injected the labrum..instant temporary relief so thats when i figured out i had a torn labrum. Definitely want to avoid sx.
So going to be squeezing my butt cheeks like crazy from now on. Thanks again terrific pt recommendations.
The squat gave me relief immediately!
Thank you!

Excellent presentation
Glad you like it! 😊
Really appreciate the way you address this. One question, I hear the phrase "heal the hip labrum" used quite a bit. Is "healing" truly possible?
No, if the tear can't heal without surgery but PT can make it asymptomatic. And if it doesn't bother you, then surgery isn't really necessary. Cartilage takes months/years to heal.
Best video I've found yet for this problem.
Thank you for your kind words Scott, we are glad this video could be of help to you! 😊
I was in pain for 15 years before I had surgery. Don't wait too long to have surgery or everything around it becomes extremely weak.
Had surgery a year ago and it saved my life! Honestly, the chronic pain was debilitating.

THANK YOU!!! Thankyouthankyouthankyou! Because of you I haven't given up on a PT solution to my hip pain.

Hey Kim! You're very welcome!
What is the best position for sleeping?
Thank you so much. I wish you were located in New York City. U are fantastic in explaining this condition. I started following your recommended exercises. They also said I have severe arthritis. 😩
I really appreciate the videos. You explain everything so well and very clear. I can't thank enough and I hope you know how much you are helping people with these videos. I have recently done MRI and found out that I have a small anterior labral tear. I love activities and stay active throughout the year. I usually play tennis, cycle and do weight training and I do not want to give up on any of them since they are my passions. Any advise you can give on this as to can I still play tennis and cycle at least once a week and keep on going with my weight training? I would really appreciate if you can help clarify this for me?
Thanks so much for this video! in your experience, how long does it normally take for a smaller labral tear to heal naturally this way?
All this advice looks marvelous. I’ve now watched about four different videos of yours, but you keep addressing things referring to the pain being toward the front my pain which is severe when I put weight on my left leg is in the back towards the left. I have had three separate falls over the last year and a half, always landing on that side so it is seeming to me logically that my problem is the opposite of what you’re describing. I don’t know if I’ve expressing this well and I don’t know how to get input or insight about this.
Your advice to work out the glutes in isolation has SAVED my hip. Muscle imbalance is real. I really do think, per your recommendation, that overly activated forward muscles pull the bone too forward into the socket, causing the tear. Like the Dr. says in the, work out the glutes and pull the hip ball back! Thank you, doctor. Surgery is not needed when your body's biomechanics are balanced properly.

Hey Tiffany! You're very welcome!
I bet they had you doing clamshells. I stopped doing PT bc it hurt and didn't help- started weight training and that helped.
@@LizaLavolta- You'd be right, at least for me. It's been almost a year since I injured it and very little progress. What type of weight training did you do?
All kinds, but I use bands to 'activate' my glute on the injured side that doesn't activate properly due to my hip. I also train my legs unilaterally now so I can individually train each side.@@lindseyasbury2047 I have no pain, but haven't reversed the injury. It is a lot better though and I have continued in strength. I gave up on PT people. They didn't help. Eventually I will get an MRI

Can these exercises help if you have a severely frayed labrum? This came on so fast, and I’m shocked. I’m recovering from major foot surgery and a fall on my back. Can’t have surgery now, so I hope these exercises do the trick. Thank you so much.
I'm sure I have a hip labral tear, but I have no pain when my hip is in the right position. When it goes out, I can barely walk. Otherwise, it feels perfectly fine. I have been going to the gym, swimming and doing ballet regularly. Should I be strengthening or just working on keeping it moving? When should I start strengthening?
Thank you so much for sharing these! I really appreciated your explanation of which muscles to feel vs just doing the movements. 💯
I'm quad dominant, right glute is visually smaller than the left. Pain is in the right hip. All the muscles in and around the hip are in a state of contracture.
This is great. I had back surgery , laminectomy for right sciatic after surgery sciatica shifted to left. I also have a torn labrum L hip. I do get glute ache and some radicular calf stuff. Is it safe for me to do these post laminectomy? Have you heard of anyone having sciatic like symptoms from a labral tear?

@epmanualphysicaltherapy Thank you for sharing so much. I’m tired of hearing the doc tell me there’s nothing I can do but take meds for pain and possibly have surgery. Your exercises helped me better than anyone the two pt rounds I’ve had. These exercises also give relief right after I’m done, so I know now I have a way to stop hurting. I am going to keep going with them! Thank you!
Are there any movements to avoid while healing? It seems like I’m always messing up my progress and my hip goes back into pain from the simplest chores.
Oh I just found a video you made on it, thanks!
How are you feeling nowadays after making this comment? Thank you for sharing your experience 🙏
Thank you! This is very encouraging! I haven’t gotten to my Ortho, but, pretty sure I have a torn labrum. When I drop into a squat my right hip joint will seize up. Sometime I can’t even stand up straight for a few minutes until I work it out. When I go for walks it will be ok and then it starts becoming painful, to the point I can’t move. At that point I extend my leg behind me until i feel the flexor stretching just to the point of pain. my foot is flexed and toes on the ground. At this point I start wiggling my heel back and forth keeping toes anchored. The action is similar to your “ fidgeting “ exercise. After the gentle stretching and wiggling back and forth I feel the pain subside, the impingement release and I am able to slowly make my way back home or on my journey. Tbh, I was afraid if I went to an orthopedic surgeon they would want to perform surgery….but, If I can heal this on my own with these exercises, I would MUCH rather go that route!. I also have bad knees and had a PRP in one and udlillical cord stem cells in the other with wonderful results! Thank you again for this video!

So, wrote all of your advice down and stop doing the yoga as it’s not helping. Thanks AGAIN UA-cam and Dr El Paso!

Hey Peter! Absolutely! These exercises would be great to ensure proper alignment of the hips. If the hips are in proper alignment, the labrum will have less stress being put through it. Hope this helps!
Hey David. Thank you for fantastic responds! I will go for arthroscopy surgery to fix my left labrum damaged by femuroacetabular impingement (CAM side) by November 16. I got this from sitting job (40 hours per week) when Gluteus muscle got too week and unbalanced with front muscles. I will follow you exercises to strengthen my Gluteus butt muscle. I will not load my leg after surgery at all (using both crutches). I appreciate your advices that absolutely make sense! Let see how will go after surgery, but maybe I will use an option for consultation. I will keep in touch. Thank you again Dave. Best. Peter
@@peteradamus9648 hello Peter 👋 i have been diagnosed with similar condition and wondered after reading your explanation, How are you feeling nowadays after making this comment? Thank you for sharing your experience 🙏
I'm going to do these. I have a torn labrum, osteoarthritis and bone spurs in my right hip. I supposed to be scheduled for hip replacement surgery in 3 months. I swim, bike, hike a lot and can't stand the idea of surgery. I'm 72 and in excellent condition other than the hip pain.
Thank you these are some of the best exercises I've found! You rock!
Glad you like them Julie! 😊
Do those movements help if there is both labral and teres ligament tears?
