Exercises to Fix Meralgia Paresthetica (Helpful or Hype?)

[@royturv]

I live in Switzerland & have had 3 total hip replacement operations on my right hip, all done here. The second was supposedly to fix the first & the third to fix the second. The first & third were via the posterior approach, the second via the anterior approach. Anyway, the second operation left me with what I believe is meralgia paresthetica (although nobody has actually been able to confirm this). Since this operation, about two years ago, I’ve had numbness & pain in my right thigh, down the side & in front (as you describe) especially when walking. You might want to add total hip replacement via the anterior approach to your list of possible causes of meralgia paresthetica. I am going to try your exercises but need to tread carefully as it’s been less than two months since the third operation. I’ve viewed a number of your videos & find them very helpful & instructive, thanks especially for this one.

I’m glad you’ve liked their other videos. You’re right about surgical incisions being a possible entrapment site as well. Maybe in the future will do some videos on that in particular. Either way this video is pretty comprehensive with us strategic approach of dealing with different types of the condition. Remember we have virtual if you’re looking for specific programming of exercises and stretches that are safe for you. A lot of times we see people after they’ve been released for physical activity from their doctor and physical therapist. Happy healing.

I’m 68 and suddenly noticed I was experiencing great difficulty getting to the floor and then back up again, it came out of nowhere and has got worse ever since that’s how I knew I had this problem
