I've been diagnosed with hip dysplasia that wasn't corrected from birth. Now at 45, I started limping last week and I don't think that I could put this surgery off any longer after a few PRP treatments. This looks like the relief I may need instead of the suggested hip replacements.

Please get as much info as you can. I had the same thing at 25 and it ruined my life. I am in more pain and have much less quality of life after this surgery
