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
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!
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!!!!!!
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’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.
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 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!!!

Hi Julie, You're welcome! Thank you for the kind words. We are so sorry to see that you have been dealing with hip labrum issues. It can be very painful to suffer from and we hope you can feel some relief soon. Just in case you are interested we have a playlist for hip labrum help. You can access it here: “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. We hope you found this information helpful to you. We'd love to hear how you are doing as you progress.🙌 Please take care!
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 🙌
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.

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!!! 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.
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.
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.
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! 😊

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.
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.
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.
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 🙏🏾

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. 😩
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!!!!!!!

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?
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?

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.
Thanks for this guide !!! I've been doing all these exercises every day before and after my treatment for torn labrum and i' m feeling better and better every day!!!! Tks!!!

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!
I got a larbrum tear in my right groin. A side effect of getting he 2nd Pfizer Covid vaccine. I know I had issues with inflammation before i got vaccinated. But after i got the 2nd Pfizer vaccine i got immediate arthritis in my left shoulder the injection site. Then a week laterci could barely walk. De the labrum tear. Thanks for the video. I can never make itcto physical therapy because im always working
@@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
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!
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 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
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

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
Hey Ebb, we are so sorry to hear that you have had to suffer from hip issues including a tear on the right side of your hip ☹️ If you do begin these exercises, we suggest starting 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.

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.

@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.

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.
Thank you, I noticed that I had troubles lifting my right leg when doing single leg squats. This perfectly describes my problems. Before I just tried stretching, without relieve. I'm gonna flex my glutes constantly from now on.
Hi Mike, we are so sorry that you are experiencing pain due to a labrum tear.

I had a heavy glute workout tonight & then I went into stretching. I had my right leg bent in a squat position with my left leg straight toes up… I turned my body to the left and bent down towards my left leg to get a good stretch… Pop! I felt my ass tear and I instantly got up. On my way home the pain went down my leg into my inner foot… then the pain wrapped around the front of my pelvis. Right now I’m icing my ass. I’ve torn a couple of hamstrings in the past so I know it can be a hard long recovery! I did all of my own physical recovery. I sure hope that you read this so you can give me some advice so I can get back to working my glutes! Will these stretches help my tear? Thank you in advance! 🙏
Go get an MRI, I was self diagnosing myself because I was a “gym rat” however you should get a professional to diagnose you, so you can know what exercises to exactly use to target your situation. Good Luck.
@@elifoster4367 the last time I tore a muscle I called my doc & told her what happened and she agreed that I tore my muscle and she told me that I knew what to do to heal it so no MRI for me. I got knocked down and broke my wrist in 4 places and had surgery. Went to see the surgeon 8 days later. He was pissed bcz I took off my own bandages! I said to him, don’t you remember telling me that I could take them off in 7 days? lol he forgot, but I didn’t. I told him that I started PT in just 3 days after surgery. He asked me to show him what I was doing. He told me that he has never had a patient take off their own bandages & start their own PT. He initially planned on sending me to a physical therapist but changed his mind. He said, you’re further in 8 days then all of my other patients have been in a month. So I continued doing my own PT. I was in the gym 2 weeks later modifying my workouts so I could keep up my bicep strength. Within about 6 months I was curling 15 pounds dumbbells with my wrist, today I’m curling 20. I learned at 5 yrs old how to do my own physical therapy after being in the hospital for an extended period of time, going through PT and not walking for 2 yrs on both feet. PT has been my life to stay out of pain & staying fit is just a part of that. I do calisthenics to stay fit, unfortunately I have had just 2 tears in my lifetime from doing dynamic movements when my muscles are too tight. I’m learning what I can’t do, but I’ll never stop moving… Thanks for your concern!
@marshareed1438 I hope you're using your knowledge and enthusiasm as a trainer or something. I was literally in tears today because I can't seem to overcome the pain in my hip no matter what I try. You've encouraged me with your story. 😊
You ate some spicy stuff and It was the ghost of your ex saying, before you die, sprinkle ashes on your chili powder so they can tear your arse 1 last time.
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.
So helpful. I lost the ability to feel the contraction of glutes witjout front of hips firing. I like the sequence and emphasis on consistency. I like the tuck position in mini squat

Hips are rotated so I walk with my right hip higher than my left. Do I need to retrain my gait, if that’s possible. This is due to scoliosis. I’ll do these exercises regardless of the rotated hips. Thanks so much.
I am at my wits end with this hip pain. They won’t do surgery because I am overweight. Trying to lose weight . I am going to do these exercises to see if I can do without surgery. My hip is so bad that I am using a cane and not steady on my feet. I do have arthritis in this joint and the cortisone shots don’t help at all and Tramadol makes me sick. If I can just walk without a cane I will be happy. I did physical therapy but the exercises made my pain worse. I am going to see if this works. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for the video. Are anterior hp labrum tears causes by extension and abduction but then they are aggravated by internal rotation and flexion? or is it the flexion and internal rotation that causes the star in the first place? thank you
Hello Doc thanks for this video. A few questions. For the seated glute squeeze. Would adding a ball between the knees to increase adduction and external rotation of the hips be beneficial? Also if I was using dry needles to help release specific muscles to relieve some of that anterior hip pressure which muscle would be most beneficial?
Hey Alex, adding a ball would activate your adductor magnus and putt additional pressure on your hips. It's best if you try and keep the contractions focused enough to where you can your glutes firing on their own without additional support from your tfl and adductor. A good way to relax your anterior pressure is with light massages on your upper quad area, dry needling could help too!

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? 😊
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!
I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My tear is degenerating my hip and they tell me I will need a hip replacement someday.
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!!!!!!
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’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.
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!!
I went from fit to immonilized. Been in physio and on meds for weeks. Did this yesterday and experiencing a remarkable relief.
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!!!
Amazing!!!!! I haven’t felt this level of relief in years!!!!🙏🏾

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.
We hope you found this information helpful to you. We'd love to hear how you are doing as you progress.🙌 Please take care!
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
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!
I am glad I found this, did the exercise and felt immediate relieve from shooting pain!
That's fantastic to hear! 😁
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
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?
Thanks
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.
I am going to work on this as its what I need for my right hip labrum tare.
Thank you for this video! - Would Hip Labrum Tear cause bad knee pain? Is there issues with muscle imbalance?
That ballet squat thing is amazing. I can feel it in my hip in a really great way.

thank you for your very good and precise instructions! I will practice them and send you greetings from Germany!
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.

Hello, I was actually curious about stem cell injections for this condition. What is a ballpark for the cost, if you dont mind my asking?
@@bigdawg9283 was 6k back then...
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.
Really good. I tried the sitting on the chair glute exercise and that relieved the pain quite immediately. Thanks El Paso Manual Physical Therapy. 🙏
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.
From one therapist to another, excellent video! Thank you.
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.
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! 😊

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.
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'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.
Wonderful information and advice. Thank you, Dr. David for sharing for free! ❤️
Hey Elle! You're very welcome!
and I want yo thank you too! Thank you for your advice dr. David ❤
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.
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 🙏🏾

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?
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?
Thank you!!! I’ve been in so much pain lately & tried these exercises & immediately relived my pain.

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.
Your exercises are so good , helps a lot . Although I have one question , are straight leg raises good for any kind of hip problem ?
Thank you so much. I’m going to do all of these and hope I can heal.
You've got this! Let us know how these work for you 💪🧡

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!
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! 😊

Hey Kim! You're very welcome!
I got a larbrum tear in my right groin. A side effect of getting he 2nd Pfizer Covid vaccine. I know I had issues with inflammation before i got vaccinated. But after i got the 2nd Pfizer vaccine i got immediate arthritis in my left shoulder the injection site. Then a week laterci could barely walk. De the labrum tear. Thanks for the video. I can never make itcto physical therapy because im always working
Do you honestly believe that’s what happened?
Why would you gaslight his experience. There have been so many side effects reported and people need to talk about it.
Thank you so much ❤️🙏
I have dealt with this injury for almost a year. PT brought me none of these exercises. THANK YOU!
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
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!
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.
Hey Bhavana, so sorry to hear that you still have aches and pain 9 months later! Keep us updated on how these exercises do for you!
What did you do. How are you now
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
Hey Rajen, you are so welcome! We appreciate your kind words and support! We hope this content is able to help you on your road to recovery!
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
That has been a tremendous help. Thank ypu so much

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
Hey Ebb, we are so sorry to hear that you have had to suffer from hip issues including a tear on the right side of your hip ☹️
If you do begin these exercises, we suggest starting 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.

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:/

My case is a bone on bone at the labrum (locked, according to x-ray). Are the exercises relevant?
@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!
Would you recommended having nerve block shot I have a tried some of the exercises helps some but mine is torn and lapping. ?thank you.
I get no replays ???

Hi i have labrum tear in right hip will these cause a bit of pain in outer side of hip as well
Thank you, I noticed that I had troubles lifting my right leg when doing single leg squats. This perfectly describes my problems. Before I just tried stretching, without relieve. I'm gonna flex my glutes constantly from now on.

I had my right leg bent in a squat position with my left leg straight toes up… I turned my body to the left and bent down towards my left leg to get a good stretch… Pop! I felt my ass tear and I instantly got up. On my way home the pain went down my leg into my inner foot… then the pain wrapped around the front of my pelvis. Right now I’m icing my ass.
I’ve torn a couple of hamstrings in the past so I know it can be a hard long recovery! I did all of my own physical recovery. I sure hope that you read this so you can give me some advice so I can get back to working my glutes! Will these stretches help my tear? Thank you in advance! 🙏
Go get an MRI, I was self diagnosing myself because I was a “gym rat” however you should get a professional to diagnose you, so you can know what exercises to exactly use to target your situation.
Good Luck.
@@elifoster4367 the last time I tore a muscle I called my doc & told her what happened and she agreed that I tore my muscle and she told me that I knew what to do to heal it so no MRI for me. I got knocked down and broke my wrist in 4 places and had surgery. Went to see the surgeon 8 days later. He was pissed bcz I took off my own bandages! I said to him, don’t you remember telling me that I could take them off in 7 days? lol he forgot, but I didn’t. I told him that I started PT in just 3 days after surgery. He asked me to show him what I was doing. He told me that he has never had a patient take off their own bandages & start their own PT. He initially planned on sending me to a physical therapist but changed his mind. He said, you’re further in 8 days then all of my other patients have been in a month. So I continued doing my own PT. I was in the gym 2 weeks later modifying my workouts so I could keep up my bicep strength. Within about 6 months I was curling 15 pounds dumbbells with my wrist, today I’m curling 20. I learned at 5 yrs old how to do my own physical therapy after being in the hospital for an extended period of time, going through PT and not walking for 2 yrs on both feet. PT has been my life to stay out of pain & staying fit is just a part of that. I do calisthenics to stay fit, unfortunately I have had just 2 tears in my lifetime from doing dynamic movements when my muscles are too tight. I’m learning what I can’t do, but I’ll never stop moving…
Thanks for your concern!
@marshareed1438 I hope you're using your knowledge and enthusiasm as a trainer or something. I was literally in tears today because I can't seem to overcome the pain in my hip no matter what I try. You've encouraged me with your story. 😊
You ate some spicy stuff and It was the ghost of your ex saying, before you die, sprinkle ashes on your chili powder so they can tear your arse 1 last time.
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.
So helpful. I lost the ability to feel the contraction of glutes witjout front of hips firing. I like the sequence and emphasis on consistency. I like the tuck position in mini squat
Hi Sara, we are happy to hear that we could be of help! Trying to fire up those glutes without other muscles can be tricky. Some of us who work here still have trouble from time to time but you got this!

@@epmanualphysicaltherapy thank you very much:)
Hi El paso, great video! My surgery failed, more pain, my hip clicks inside the acetablum what could that mean.? Greetings Boudewijn.
Do those movements help if there is both labral and teres ligament tears?
Hips are rotated so I walk with my right hip higher than my left. Do I need to retrain my gait, if that’s possible. This is due to scoliosis. I’ll do these exercises regardless of the rotated hips. Thanks so much.
I am suffering since two years.I will try these exercises.
Hey, Hilda! Sorry to hear you were suffering for so long :-( We would love to hear how these exercises work for you!
How are you now
What if you're also missing about a 9 mm fragment bone in the tear area can you still do the same exercises?
I am at my wits end with this hip pain. They won’t do surgery because I am overweight. Trying to lose weight . I am going to do these exercises to see if I can do without surgery. My hip is so bad that I am using a cane and not steady on my feet. I do have arthritis in this joint and the cortisone shots don’t help at all and Tramadol makes me sick. If I can just walk without a cane I will be happy. I did physical therapy but the exercises made my pain worse. I am going to see if this works. Thanks for the video.
Good luck. I have hip pain too. Sucks I know. 😢
Thanks for the video. Are anterior hp labrum tears causes by extension and abduction but then they are aggravated by internal rotation and flexion? or is it the flexion and internal rotation that causes the star in the first place? thank you
Hello Doc thanks for this video. A few questions. For the seated glute squeeze. Would adding a ball between the knees to increase adduction and external rotation of the hips be beneficial? Also if I was using dry needles to help release specific muscles to relieve some of that anterior hip pressure which muscle would be most beneficial?
Hey Alex, adding a ball would activate your adductor magnus and putt additional pressure on your hips. It's best if you try and keep the contractions focused enough to where you can your glutes firing on their own without additional support from your tfl and adductor.
A good way to relax your anterior pressure is with light massages on your upper quad area, dry needling could help too!
Brilliant

I do hip fidgeting all the time, but how do you combat hypermobility (EDS) core fatigue?
