Hello Doctor Jo, I've watched many of your videos. I have a problem when sitting. I feel a lot of pressure in my hips, pelvis and down my hamstrings. Wondering what your advice is on this issue?

[@AskDoctorJo]

Do you have a specific diagnosis? Unfortunately, that could be a number of things.

[@chriscrain8484]

@@AskDoctorJo I don't. Seen many Drs and PTs but nothing ever addresses this feeling of sitting pain. Pain like I'm sitting on a bar underneath my hamstrings.

[@AskDoctorJo]

Any injury to start it all? Any imaging of your back/pelvis?

[@seancreaven8173]

Hi Doctor Jo, would these stretches be beneficial to an anterior femoral head subluxation problem?

[@Caulstan0878]

This is the video that healed some very chronic hip and nerve issues for me. Do these exercises religiously, and if this is your issue, you will find healing. This was about a year ago for me now and I could barley walk without everything tightening up to the point of pretty severe pain. Here I am a year later, no surgery, and pretty much 100% back. Love it

I'm glad it helped!

Hey Dr.Jo, I just found out I have FAI and I am trying to decide what exercises I should do; I have been walking which does not cause strain but would you advise against running or cycling? If not what do you advise instead? I want to get back into rigorous exercise! Thanks

[@sarahmclin2434]

I’ve been dealing with terrible hip pain for over a year. I do daily yoga and started losing hip mobility on my left. Psoas stretches helped, but I definitely began to notice the problem wasn’t just muscular. This is the best I’ve felt in ages! I’ll be doing this video daily! Subscribing too!

[@AskDoctorJo]

Thanks!

[@lisa6371]

How are you feeling now?? I'm having the same thing. I also do yoga daily. I can walk thankfully and get around but lifting my knee towards my chest is painful. Transitioning into lunges...etc. So hard mentally

[@sarahmclin2434]

@@lisa6371 I'm doing much better. I can still feel there's an issue, but I can do most walking and yoga without pain, though I've had to modify a few poses and avoid a few others. I probably need to get surgery on it, but I still need to have a doctor look at it.

[@AskDoctorJo]

You're welcome!

[@deerinheadlights9784]

Thank you! I just got results from a 3T MRI and found out this is what I have, a hip impingement and linear tear of my acetabulum labrum. Do you recommend stationary cycling? I’m seeing my hip PT next week and curious your take. I look forward to trying these. There is additional blunting and degeneration of the anterior aspect of my superior labrum. I highly recommend this 3T imaging. It took 15 months to finally get an accurate diagnosis for me, being in pain or discomfort nearly every day.

[@AskDoctorJo]

You're welcome! A stationary bike should be fine as long as you are cleared for exercises.

[@urvashib26]

Same story. I lived with the pain for 18 months before doc agreeing for a MRI and I have hip impingement and labral tears. I have a lot of pain so doc wants me to get a cortisone shot. Hopefully I can finally see some relief.

[@deerinheadlights9784]

@@urvashib26 Have you been going to PT? That can help. It's helped my pain go down and they say I'm not a good candidate for surgery because I've struggled rehabbing a shoulder injury for sometime (also being in the middle area for being a good-bad candidate). Hope the shot helps you and you find relief in general. PT has be working on getting my glutei stronger. It's still a lot of work with a lacrosse ball for lots of tight/painful muscles and I get dry needling done weekly fortunately to manage the symptoms.

[@urvashib26]

@@deerinheadlights9784 Thank you for the suggestion! I had been going to PT for months before the diagnosis but the pain would be back as soon as I tried to increase the activity a bit and then transitioned to continuous pain where I can't walk or bike even half a mile. Will be going to PT for a month again and then go for the shot. I wish there was a way people could get diagnosed faster rather than waiting and speculating for months and years and the condition worsening!

[@dykey13]

Hi doctor!.... when I train usually do some soft stretching, workout and a more deep stretching at the end..... Is that ok with an Hip Impingement? because I see in this video is the opposite. And a second question, can a person with hip impingement continue practising splits after the pain has resolved? or that can aggravate things? Thanks in advanced.

how can you fix FAI when there is extra bone grew on the acetabular?

[@AskDoctorJo]

It can be a deformity at the acetabulum or the femur, but that is not usually the problem, it is the result of the problem. These often form from imbalances causing rubbing because the joint is not moving how it's suppose to. If you can correct the imbalances with proper stretches and exercises, it no longer continues to cause damage.

Does this work for sharp pain in hips? I have no mobility issues. Just sharp pain when walking on it.

[@daphnefeida6601]

Very good exercises for fai. I have the pincher type and i want to mention some things. All the stretching exercises also stretch the joint capsule which is very helpful and relieving. Also when i do hip extension i always put a pillow under my belly because i do lower back extension and it hurts my back. What i dont understand tho is why external rotation with 90 dergees flexion still hurts a lot...i can't seem to be able to do it wihout pain! Note my labrum is already teared appart a bit!

[@AskDoctorJo]

Thanks. The external rotation pain is more likely from your labrum tear depending on where it is.

Hello? I am a man living in Seoul, South Korea. At the university hospital, Hip joint CAM type was informed after surgery that if you cut more bones, you will get avascular ecosis of the femoral head, so you couldn't cut a lot. The doctor explained that pain after surgery should be lived like that for the rest of your life. Is this true?

[@wendyyoung50]

Hello, I am 49 yr old female with FAI CAM version, labrum tears. I'm in excruciating pain daily. Wanted to start stretching until I decide if surgery is my next step. If you have the labrum tears are exercises going to cause anymore damage (anymore than walking) which I have to do. Lol. Four back surgeries and I will say this FAI is a horrible existence. Looking for any helpful information you might could add. Thank you in advance. I'm now a subscriber.

[@AskDoctorJo]

You're welcome, and thanks! If you already have a tear, you really can't do a lot more damage besides normal wear and tear.

When walking it does not hurt as much unless I sat down too long or I walk for a long period of time. What hurts more is trying to sit with my legs crossed and intercourse😥.

I have patellofemoral syndrome and issues with hip impingement and weakness. I'm sure the two are connected. I started doing your recommended stretching/exercises yesterday for my knees and I'll be adding them in from this video too. I love lifting weights, cycling, and running but cannot do any of those right now due to pain and discomfort. Thank you for your content it is greatly appreciated!

Haii Dr☺️ am having pincer type FAI . Am 14 weeks pregnant now... sometimes i am having pain on my groin area.. will it get worst during pregnancy mam?? I am so afraid of that...😞

[@AskDoctorJo]

Unfortunately, I don't know since I can't evaluate you. Hopefully with stretches and exercises it won't get worse.

AskDoctorJo thank you for your reply mam..😊

You're welcome.

[@elizabethwilson702]

do you recommend the same for obese patients?

[@rebekahhwang7347]

Is it okay to do these every day? Or is that too harsh on the body?

[@AskDoctorJo]

Therapeutic exercises can be done every day.

Started my first day today. Left hip has been bugging me since I nailed it on an embedded rock that I came down on all dirt biking. It's been two years, I feel my hip getting a little weaker, and starting to affect my lower back. I hope these exercises help. Thank you for the wonderful video.

You're welcome. Good luck!
