I’m pretty late to finding your channel but glad I did!🎉 I was accidentally diagnosed with severe bilateral hip dysplasia and moderate arthritis at 33 years old. I’m now 36 and heading towards hip replacement surgery in a few years. I had many X-ray before being diagnosed but they were all wrong! I was told it was sciatica and PT would help with stretching. Everything just hurt more 😢 I have gained so much weight which also doesn’t help. I am writing this comment to help me feel accountable for saying that I am starting more activities such as stationary bike riding and loop band exercises. I am going to try and loose as much weight as possible in the next year. I need to get in shape before my hip replacement and before my 40th birthday!🥳
So glad you found us too! Good luck on the journey and reach out if you need any support! You can also check out our hip plan on Jen Health. You can get a free week through this free trial link: jen.health/freetrial
Fantastic video. I am a PT and just took on a client with hip dysplasia. I am happy about what you said in the last segment because improving ROM and control of that ROM is exactly what we have been doing. CARs, and PAILs/RAILs have been monumental in my clients progress and Im just happy there is something we can do to help this. Very informative video, I could see how to much of those jumper chairs could be harmful of hip capsule! thank you
Thank you for this video. I am 36 and just now been diagnosed with bad hip dysplasia, severe labral tears, and need hip replacements. I had pain and leg discrepancy as a kid and no one thought to diagnose me. Now one hip is completely decimated and I’m… going through it right now to say the least. I don’t know how I lasted this long being an active person 😫
Thanks so much for sharing. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. My biggest encouragement would be to continue to do everything you can to stay active, mobile, and strong. Best of luck in the journey ahead! You got this!
Hello, I've played soccer for 13 years, when I was 19 I took a 3 year break to go to university. Last year I started playing soccer again but I immediately started having anterior hip pain during and after running. At first I thought I had just overloaded my hip flexor or a tendon or something, since I hadn't done any sports for the last 3 years that seemed logical, but after taking a few weeks of rest and doing some PT the pain stayed and even got worse. My doctor then thought I might have a cartilage injury in my hip and gave me a cortisone injection which also did nothing. He then sent me to a hip surgeon who told me that my right hip might have dysplasia but that it wasn't very clear. He basically told me to never run again since that would just make it worse and told me there was no other option. My question to you guys is: could it be that my hip became weaker during those 3 years of not doing any sports which now results in my hip dysplasia and if I get back to the physique I had a few years ago, could the hip dysplasia go away because the muscles around my hip are stronger? Thanks in advance.
new Subscriber. I have left hip dysplasia. I was born breach and the dr who delivered me told mom that he had a very difficult time pulling me out. He didn’t realize that he pulled my left hip out of the socket. I’m 64 and the issues are getting severe. I’m looking for tips to help. I want to delay surgery and hopefully to avoid it altogether 🙏 I desperately want help. Thanks for doing this video!!
Very interesting! This is important information for new parents! That was my situation! Lots of pain/inflammation leading to my first hip replacement at 49 yrs, second in my 60’s. Then both knees replaced because they were impacted too. However, I’m fit, healthy and active now! Although I was in a hip stabilizer cast as a baby, it obviously didn’t help much and further treatment was not an option for my generation.
Thanks for this video. I guess I'm the odd man out. I wasn't diagnosed with hip dysplasia until I was 61 (they also said the x-ray showed secondary OA, which they think is what started causing me the pain). My problem is pain with only two movements: swinging my leg into the car and putting on my pants. Other than that, I can do everything else without pain - walk, climb stairs/ladder, do sandbag training with 50 lbs., etc. I did PT for 5 months with no improvement before finally going to an ortho doc and being diagnosed with hip dysplasia and OA. I saw someone mention something called CAR and PAILs/RAILs. Do you think that could help with my pain? My PT had me do what I now think would be considered "standard" PT. Thinks like bridges, clam shell, side steps with exercise band, seated marches, squats with exercise band, etc. My ortho doc said a hip replacement is in my future, but I'd love to prove him wrong lol Any thoughts? I did take Meloxicam (aka Mobic) for a few weeks which definitely helped (it's an anti-inflammatory). It's not good to be on it long term, so looking for a better way to deal with my problem.
Thanks so much for sharing! It's definitely hard for us to say specifically based on not having any additional background information about your diagnoses or medical history. However, with hip dysplasia and hip OA, working on hip mobility and control can definitely be helpful in developing more confidence in these daily movements. So I think that would be great to explore other exercises like CARS, PAILs, and RAILs.
I was diagnosed with acetabular dysplasia when I was 14 running in track(100m). I felt a sharp pain in the muscle as I was sprinting. I saw many dr.'s and physio's but no one was able to help me. One dr suggested surgery but also said it could lead to complications later in life, so I declined. It doesn't bother me too much doing day to day activities. I can hike and bike but can't run or play sports like I used to. Not sure if there is a "cure" for this or if I just have to live with it.
I’ve been diagnosed with hip dysplasia a few months ago at 18 the scan also revealed that my femoral head has become almost flat they said we just can wait around 21 for my surgery
I don’t know I got diagnosed with it just yesterday I’m 27 now I feel utterly disappointed that my family just flat didn’t pay enough attention and kind of angry just another thing they forgot to even be concerned about especially because I was born with CP
Hi Everyone I was born with hip Dysplasia and have been to scared to have op, has both need to be replaced, always in pain, I feel with everyone who has this problem, I’m in my early 50’s any exercises would be appreciated,
Hi Mick, Thank you for your response! I would recommend going to a physical therapist, where they can guide you specifically to your body's needs. Hopefully some of the information on this video helps!
Iam a 52 year old was born with congenital hip dysplasia and now having osteoarthritis in my hips also spinia bifida occultia in my lower back so tell me Am I a good candidate for the hip surgery
Unfortunately I'm unable to give surgery recommendations through comments and that is kind of out of my scope of practice. I would recommend getting with someone in person who can help give you guidance on this.
My mom suffered from subluxing hips, always saying her hips were out of joint, and I was a dancer who could on the first attempt plop down into the splits with my ankle on the couch. Thankfully my dance teacher spoke out against this, did it anyway... my friend, "that was too easy, something is wrong", unfortunately I felt that I had to prove my flexibility was REAL, ugh, by 18 my hips were making such loud grinding and popping noises my dance teacher demanded that I see a doctor, did I? Nope. another 10 years later first frank dislocation, mom on the phone telling me how to pop it back in... another ten years later, finally saw a hip orthopedic surgeon because I could hardly get my clothes on last year, finally Dx with hEDS, and now Dx with hip dysplasia and not a little bit terrified to get the MRI (shoulders are pretty bad too). Apparently being born breech predisposes you to this condition, I was born prematurely and breech, doctor saw either me or my sister's hips dislocating as a baby (sister never did the splits, no hip pain, my parents double wrapped, likely me- in a diaper and called that a "fix" in the 80s), how lucky kids are today. Scared of my future now, but hoping for a better outcome.
Thank you so much for sharing. Hopefully the video gave a few ideas on how you can start working to develop some stability in the area. Keep working at it and keep consistent! The body is amazing and adaptable.
My PT is an Olympic weightlifter and told me that actually people with hip dysplasia oftentimes are better equipped to get into deep squats & Olympic lifts because the lack of acetabular coverage actually allows for better range of motion. Ironically I have it in my left hip and I'm terrible at Olympic weightlifting. Lol. My femurs are pretty long so I have to squat much wider, and my pelvis is very wide. Not great for Oly lifts... I'm going to stick to bodybuilding. He said my dysplasia wasn't the inherent cause for my labral tear. It was poor squat form and being trained to squat like "everyone else" which doesn't work for my anatomy.
I have hip dysplasia and arthritis tylenol don’t take the pain away no more what should I do 😔😔😔😔it hurts bad if I walk long distances should I go for sergury or a shot for the pain arthritis please help I feel lonely on this subject
I'm gonna be 30 this month, and am just finding out that I think I might have this... It's never been an issue when I was a kid (and I was a VERY active outdoorsy kid, climbing trees and everything), or barely even as an adult. There are some key moments I remember that could have very much been this. But it started becoming noticable shortly after the pandemic happened. Around the time I started gaining weight... Perhaps these are still early signs and I can still catch it in time? Gonna make appointment with my doctor.
Glad you are noticing these things and it would definitely be a good idea to try and get things checked out in person or see a physical therapist to see if they have any suggestions!
I am a dancer who was born with Hip dysplasia, I don't have any pain usually. Actually i don't even notice it only sometimes ill have a hip pop or crack but thats about it. But, Im at the point in my dance carer where Getting my leg up in kicks and being able to drop down into the splits is very important if I plan on going further in my carer. Ive really struggled with getting the splits because my range of motion isn't very good. do you think it is possible for people with hip dysplasia to get their splits or is it just not a possibility?
I am scheduled for PAO Surgery 6/13 adn I am super scared. I am a 38 yr old active Mom and. 4 weeks after surgery we are also supposed to take my child to college which is 10 hours away. I am worried about the Drive. Any suggestions?
Thanks so much for reaching out. It is tough for us to give specific suggestions when it comes to surgery. I think the best thing would be to discuss this with your surgeon or talk to a physical therapist in person to prepare for this!
I work with tool belts in construction and i didn't realize i had his dysplasia until recently and i remember being so angry at how weak my hips were that i would keep the tool belt on longer and heavy to get stronger. glad to know i wasnt weak but i think i made it worse
I have got the x ray diagnosis recently of a milder one. Very light dude that does tons of sport. I had to stop running at age of 18 but never know where the hip pain came from. Now at the age of 26 I am a very fit climber but I have loads of hip issues that also concern the nerves so my feet start to sleep sometimes and it gets worse after intense bouldering.... Honestly I am so afraid... I want to do so much sport and now I have this issue. Additionally I am very hyperlfexible (can grab my feet with hands and even go further) I hope surgery is not the only way to do so bc I have 0 arthritis but internet says you must do it sooner than later. I am so scared off the doctors meeting on monday...
Hi Marcus! Thanks for reaching out. Being so hyper flexible, it sounds like you are just putting some increased pressure into that hip capsule and labrum. It sounds like you would benefit from some hip strengthening and stability exercises in all directions. Working the lateral hip, controlling through internal and external rotation, hip adductor exercises, and single leg stability work. Could be a great place to start! Good luck with your appointment!
Hi! I know it’s already been a year since you’re post, but i was curious to know wether or not you got PAO surgery? Or doing PT enough? I’m kind of in a similar situation, hip dysplasia with no visible arthritis. and also had to quit bouldering and surfing due to continuous hip issues
@@emmavardanian1791 Very sorry to hear about this. So in my case the doctor was not helpful. Yes, I got hip athrosis (degeneration of hip but not inflamated yet) but in an earlier stadium. Weird thing is that the radiologist on the xray saw bothing but the doc webt nuts on it. Abd yes, in the MRI, it was confirmed that I have hip athrosis BUT he did it on the right whilst I had pain on the left. So my pain varies a lot and it is very dependent on muscle tension. Its probably more a mix of sciatica and heavy muscle tension. Since I can still rig a 10 to 15 kilo bag no problems but I get problems when doing overhangs and especially when sitting. So that seems like muscular more. But the doc didnt recognizes on this, the only thing he saw was atritus and he even told me to stop all sports which I did and I was heavily depressed. I go a lot outdoor climbing again, problems are still there but I am a lot more happy. Also I must mention, he put cortisone in my right tendon near the hip weeks after the post (Remember issues were on the left) and after that I literlaly couldnt walk for 2 months.
@@emmavardanian1791 Ok now that I have layd down my issues, what exactly did you face on pain? Like when does it come, also in terms of climbing, is it different and depending in the types if climb? (slabs vs overhangs?) Do you have issues whilst sitting? Issues whilst walking? Issues only when doing sports or at night as well? More issues when having stress? And most importantly - displasia but really no athritis? X ray or MRI? If there is bonathritis then you might be avle to get around it my routinely checking every 2 years in MRI - athritis you do also see the early stages! And then on hip pain, again for me it also depends a lot on muscle tension, so especially stressful episodes are pretty bad due tonme reacting with high tensions.
@@marcusstrymon693 Hi Marcus, thanks for your reply! So weird there is no correct follow-up of your dysplasia, especially when you have a highly active lifestyle. Must be disappointed; it can leave you feeling so alone with your pain and fear of not understanding what is happening or will happen to your body. Did you try physical therapy to strengthen all the hip muscles in a neutral position? And I really understand how you must've felt when hearing you have to quit all sports.
It could definitely contribute to potential pinching sensation or impingement. Now it is about learning to control the amazing mobility that you already have!
You guys say to manage your weight but you don't mention if it's lean mass or fat mass that needs to be managed... What if I'm a bodybuilder with dysplasia? I'm lean but I'm still gaining more lean body mass over time. Which is undeniably a good thing. But it's putting more load on my joints. So I'm not sure what I can do beyond continuing to strengthen my muscles around the hips...
I would say that the main thing is ensuring the muscles about the hip can manage and control the weight you do have. So as long as you feel your hip muscles can control your lean mass, this should be okay!
@@docjenfit thanks for your reply. 😃 I asked my PT this question this morning too and he told me good functional movement is going to be much more important than losing any kind of mass. So I'm focusing on improving my form.
You guys are providing absolutely nothing for adults. No exercises, no treatment plans, just stating the obvious. No incentive for me to even click a like button, let alone subscribe.
I had no idea that I had hip dysplasia until I ended up with stage 2 osteoarthritis. I am now looking forward to a hip replacement

So I'm not sure what I can do beyond continuing to strengthen my muscles around the hips...
I would say that the main thing is ensuring the muscles about the hip can manage and control the weight you do have. So as long as you feel your hip muscles can control your lean mass, this should be okay!
@@docjenfit thanks for your reply. 😃 I asked my PT this question this morning too and he told me good functional movement is going to be much more important than losing any kind of mass. So I'm focusing on improving my form.
Lack of exercise?..and thigh getting shorter than shin? Anyone?
