I think it's dangerous to demonize surgery and scare people who need it. I had this surgery and it saved my hip.

This was THE MOST HELPFUL video!!! I want to make an appointment with these guys.

I really hate that “specialists” don’t look at the whole person, the whole body. And then that trickles down to the PT’s approach. I decided to start to work on my whole body, upper and lower muscles and also full body mobility. I still have hip issues so I also target exercise and mobility in that area, but it is greatly improved. And upright Health videos are a godsend. Thank you

The numbness in was a suprise to me too. But my hip pain was terrible going into the surgery.

that's the insane part understanding, "kinetics" new to me, it's almost like a puzzle of pin pointing where the issue should be addressed...very helpful!

Looks like your post-op PT was insufficient although the surgery "worked" after you performed the right PT. Best of luck.

Had surgery for a hip impingement now 6 years ago and the only thing it did for me was making scars and numbness in my leg to this day. Still can’t run, still can’t stand for long periods of time, and I still can’t enjoy life having terrible hips!

in this videos ,all that said ,is all right , before went arthroscopic hip . never i had hear someone ,that stay well wiht out arthroscopic hip.

Great video and motivation!! I been following Upright health, Matt and the other 2 guys I forgot there name and been having some improvements after a 3 year battle from stepping off a truck at work missing the step and jamming my hip causing all sorts of pain and muscle imbalances... I wish you guys worked in Michigan I would pay what I needed to get back to normal! I done had prolotherapy shots, Tumeric, fish oil pills and etc, which stop a lot of the pain from shooting down my leg and in my butt Glute muscle but still get pain in Glute, Low back, hip and ALOT OF HIP TIGHTNESS,.. But I refuse too get surgery for I know there is HOPE!! I’m going to get the FAI program just need time to invest due to my Busy work schedule... Never thought a miss landing could cause this much of a life change! I can’t do a beginners pigeon pose at all due to the FAI Impingement and Tightness

Well I’m crippled can’t walk with a huge lump on side of hip and buttock. The very bottom part of my groin pops hard and loud 100 times a day so what do I do. The pain is so bad I can’t sit, walk far, lay or sleep and driving has become excruciating. I have been like this 18 years made my birth of my child excruciating and now I almost can’t care for her.

I've had this for 3 years. I've spent thousands on various therapies and treatments and it hasn't fixed the issue. Some days I cannot fully weight-bear. I have to click out my hip every day. I rigidly stuck to the physio I was given, and this hasn't fixed it. I've tried so many different RU-vid video exercises, which can give relief but it's shortlived. Since realising I need to really focus more on my glutes (which I had been, but not enough) it has improved things, but I'm still not too good. It is still a real issue in my life. It's really affected my mood. I've always been a very active person and this has restricted me so much. I had to give up nursing as I just can't be on my feet all day, and I cannot bend around. My hip twangs if I bend forward or when I stand from sitting. It aches and feels like my hip locks up. It's really been a miserable 3 years, but I try to keep upbeat, as that's my personality. It has prevented me from doing so much, it's really held me back. That's been really tough. However, I'll never go under the knife. I have heard from so many people (many I personally know, and some I've read about) and how it's made them worse. I believe this young man and I believe surgery is not always the answer. Nor is steroid shots. Steroids eat tendons for lunch. I do think it's about finding the right physio regime and sticking to it day-in, day-out. As tedious as that is, it's got to be better than surgery. I hope this young man is finding life rosier now and he's really found a solution. I'm sadly still working on mine 🙄🥺 But for the past 3 days I've been really working on my glutes and core, so well see!

Exact thing happened to me with surgery. I reported pain to my surgeon after surgery too and he did the same tests and said “see you’re cured”. Didn’t take into account that i was still in pain. Wish I’d never had it. My hip and FAI got so much worse afterwards. I’m in constant pain and have spent 10 years post surgery trying to figure out what is wrong with me. Going to give the FAI fix a program a try and hoping it’s not too late!

So after surgery and physical therapy he feels better? Sounds like the surgery worked...

Many here are suffering from ligament & tendon laxity. PRP and or Prolo therapy can help you get stronger.

Did this guy have hip impingement with a labral tear or just hip impingement?

I try get rom and fai fix and everything else for 2 years. Didn't work. I did fai surgery both hips and was the best intelligent choice I did.. Pain free, doing strength, running, cycling without any issue. A work for live... Good luck.

I want to have a hip operation how much it cost

Problem is you need money for all this that poor ppl don’t have.

I have an FAI right hip 62 degrees and labral tear. I have an upcoming surgery Jan 9th. I am not sure if surgery is the right decision. The reason I am probably going to go with surgery is because I am told that it could help prevent hip deterioration and osteoarthritis. I am not sure whats true. Pain seems to be getting better with PT.

I'm scared

A scheme to bill your insurance twice!!

Upright Health: where we help you bring the feeling back to your genitals. 👍

I had the exact same surgery on both of my hips and I have the exact same symptoms and problems still, it's some bullshit. Only difference is that I am 17.

I got cam impingement, i am not able to do highkicks. I dont have hip pain etc only my hip rotation sucks. Do you guys think that i need to take a surgery?

Is it possible that he is now getting better results from excersise since he actually did the surgery? He Said he did not get any prior to it.

Hi, is there improvement for osteoarthritis of the hip with your program?

What is the % of success of this surgery? Don't believe bones can be modified with PT. Guys try postless surgery to avoid genital pain and "outside in " technique that's key.

I have surgery for this the 14th.
