Labral Tear -- can this fix PN?
Labral Tear -- can this fix PN?
I found out i have a labral tear in both hips -- had a block today that definately helped the hip pain. Has anyone had surgery for a Labral tear and cured their PN?? There is a study posted on this site that shows this but i have also heard that is doesnt work??

Re: Labral Tear -- can this fix PN?
Lauren who posts under "pomegranate" and "Lernica" both had/have labral hip tears. Lauren was able to get her PN under control with pelvic floor PT and the labral hip surgery with Dr. Hal Martin in Oklahoma (she should have recently had her first child) and Lernica had shockwave therapy in Canada with Dr. Kirk Andrew which decreased her symptoms by 60+% and is awaiting surgery for her hip tear after which she is hopeful for a 100% recovery. I think labral hip tears can definitely be a cause of PN pain, so in my personal opinion I would get those addressed first with a surgeon experienced with hip tears and try PT before having an invasive PN decompression.
