Hip Labrum Tears

[@honuman39]

I'm a manual therapist that does a lot of myofascial manipulation. I liked the video but there's a part of rehabbing a musculoskeletal injury like a labral tear that I never see addressed in anyone's videos that I think is worth mentioning. That is muscle guarding and the compensatory patterns that develop post injury. With a labral tear there will often be an increase in muscle inhibition with some/all hip rotators, flexors and extensors. In addition to the strengthening exercises like in this video, I've found it very helpful to restore some hip balance by reducing the hypertonicity in the muscles especially the tfl, glutes, deep hip rotators and going just above the hip, the QL. If you can get the hip to release from a muscle guarded pattern some pain levels generally drop and rom increases so strengthening exercises will be beneficial even more. Just thought to add to the discussion of your great video. Cheers

[@docjenfit]

Thank you so much for this feedback!

[@clintcollins7366]

I have both a posterior and an anterior labrum tear in my hip. The muscle guarding, and resulting muscle spasms, make this a debilitating injury for me. I couldn’t agree more on strengthening. It has helped with becoming stable and mobile, but I’ve only ever been able to get temporary relief from getting the muscles to relax and release before the cycle simply starts all over again. What sort of muscle release exercises can be done to better address this muscle guarding component?

[@SamuelTheCoello]

@@clintcollins7366 I’ve literally never heard of muscle guarding but I can feel my hip locking up and constantly popping. I’ve tried strengthening as well. If any muscle guarding techniques are mentioned, I’d be so thankful!

[@elmalloc]

can you speak English for us!! :(

[@honuman39]

@@SamuelTheCoello muscle guarding is a term for when muscle and connective tissue stiffens and under performs as a way to protect an injury. Surgery is often performed for the kind of labral tear you describe. Hopefully you've talked with your doctor/Ortho/PT about the issue. Maybe there's non invasive ways to manage it. You might look into prolotherapy, prp and stem cell treatments too but I couldn't assess your particular condition through posts like this. Best of luck to you.

It happens frequently when people have hip dysplasia. I am 38 and I have two dysplastic hip joints. I found it out just a few weeks ago, after seeing a hip specialist. My labrum looks very fine though, but my orthopedic doc said that I am more vulnerable in this area. I would advise people to always get a front x-ray (pelvis front view, both hips need to be visible) and look for the LCE angles. In Germany this is all covered by general healthinsurance but it is often overseen by a lot of orthopedics, because the symptoms are so unspecific (people have sore hip flexors, lower back pain, piriformis or deepl gluteal syndrome..) symptoms, because the dysplasia is often the cause for constant functional overload of the muscles around the hip. PT & Training helped me keep my labrum intact, but to fix HD, a surgery is usually the way to prevent any further damage of the joint (PAO).

I just found out a week ago i tore my labrum. Ive been unable to run and sit comfortable since last fall so finally my physical therapist ordered an MRI and now here we are. I already did 3 weeks of PT but that didnt help honestly. Now im on my 6 weeks of more PT and i feel worse even driving. I hate it.

I had a labral tear in both hips at the same time. I did stem cell injections into each joint (at the same time) in February 2022 and it worked wonders for me. Not 100% healed at the moment, but probably close to 90% and I think I’m still healing, so hoping for 100%!

I had excess bone growth on my right hip which tore my labrum. I could barely walk at times and had clicking in my hip when I would raise and lower my right knee. I tried PT and Ibuprofen, but moderate menstrual cramps would undermine the progress I was making with PT and it was like back to square one--severe pubic bone pain and inability to walk. So In November 2023, I decided to have surgery to have the excess bone shaved down and the labrum repaired. For me, I had to choose between a poor quality of life that would last who knows how long and a temporary recovery/short term disability.

I’ve successfully torn both of my labrums. The right in 2020 & the left in 2021. Mine are both results from falling due to Multiple Sclerosis. My legs have pain 24/7 but the pain I experienced from the tears was much worse!! I couldn’t straighten my legs and the pain would go down the front of my thighs. The pain never ever changed until I was able to get cortisone injections. My hips have become so stiff that I can’t pick my legs up. My right side rotates completely outward. Unfortunately, I think it might be time to go down the surgery route!! Never would I have figured that almost 20 years of falls would affect my hips!!

Thank you for the amazing video! I suffered a hip labrum tear 10 months ago and notice i still suffer with limited range of mobility and discomfort during external rotation of the hip. I wanted to ask is it possible that it may never fully heal on its own? I do live a healthy athletic lifestyle (yoga, bouldering, gym) so i hope that would help heal it but i understand it is a very slow area of the body to heal.

[@docjenfit]

Thanks so much for sharing! Labral injuries are difficult because the tissue itself doesn't have a great blood supply and technically may not heal itself. However, depending on the severity, there is a lot you can do to continue to regain full function and minimize any long term symptoms. Best thing to do would be try and see someone in person and let them know you want to take a conservative approach so they can more fully assess you!

Hello,the labrum doesn't heal at all, its cartilage, bad news i know, I have both labrums injured. Now, it won't heal on it's own, but you can try cartilage regenerative methods.....you can investigate about that, but unfortunately now a days it is not the best option....I hope with time we can reach further in this area, it would save a lot of surgerys.The only solution to fully recover a labrum it's surgery, if not, it will never be healed 100%.

This was very helpful.

I've been doing more research the past 6 months or so and it seems that this explains more of what I'm experiencing than anything else.

[@docjenfit]

Hi Scott, I'm truly sorry to hear about your experience. The best thing I can do is recommend seeing a new orthopedic doctor to try to get help and surgery you feel you need. Please know that not all physical therapy is the same and just starting with breath work (I do have some videos on this page for this) can be very helpful to at least reduce pain in the moment. You can also do some gentle nerve glides or mobility for the hip, as well as some basic strengthening that doesn't require you to load or place much pressure on the hip. I hope you find the relief you are looking for soon 🙏

[@madonnadove]

That’s terrible! It took over a year for me to get labrum tear diagnosed. It will take another year for me to get it replaced. If you are under 40 years of age there is orthoscopic surgery available. That’s how it works in Canada. Good luck! Try the steroid injection into the joint. It helps with the pain a great deal! Go to a pain clinic for now until you get it fixed.

I had a labrum tear, that pain and movement issues lasted almost a year. After that year of rest, I went to PT for therapy.

My suggestion - find a really good hip orthophedic surgeon that has tons of experience and that works with athletes and older people so you can get a good diagnosis. FAI arthroscopic surgery success rates are actually quite high. It just takes time to recover. About 6 months to 8 months to full activity.

Now I'm using a lacrosse ball on my groin daily and on my lower back area (piroformis). I also have Bertolotti's Syndrome that most with a hip labral tear probably don't have. Bertolotti connects the sacrum to the spine (with a bone that should not be there), in my case it's rubbing and not fully fused. Anyway, the past 1-2 weeks I've been able to walk a 5K per day. I tried pushing it and going into a jog for 10 seconds at a time and I still get muscle spasms in my hip.

[@Ford_prefect_42]

Not a doctor- but literally in the same situation so here's my story if it helps you: my hips were crooked and had to be adjusted back to normal. So many things could have caused this, but it basically meant my leg bone was jammed up into the socket and shifted my hip. I got my hip adjusted and my legs are now the same length. Currently going through treatment for the tear though. Hope this helps but definitely see a doctor or physical therapist

[@docjenfit]

Yeah our labrum isn't even nearly two inches thick, so it must be something else functional going on. I would recommend working on hip mobility from side to side to see if there are any major restrictions that could be causing you to guard differently on that left side.

[@terivansteel3425]

Spine, sacrum, etc., can be out of alignment, and with adjustments, it can be corrected. Most people who think they have uneven leg length have this type of problem. Your muscles will want to pull everything out of alignment again, so physical therapy and rechecks would be needed until stabilized

I had this pain five years ago but I got into great shape and the pain went away but after gaining 30 pounds it has come back with a force and I don’t know what it is because it doesn’t fit the description of anything I’ve seen so far because it doesn’t extend on any lower region. It’s just the tip of my pelvis. I have ice to ice put electric shock on it. Nothing really helps any idea of what this could be? I’m really considering going to a doctor to get a diagnosis?

Im not sure what is wrong with me. Can a labral tear refer pain to the nerves in the inguinal canal? My right testicle always feels sensitive. And it always scales with the pain in my groin. I'm told I don't have a hernia. And I've already done physical therapy and it did nothing. I've also gotten blood and urine tests and nothing was found. Standing for a while always seems to agrivate my groin as well.

[@Mental_Diet]

Hey there! I have this exact same experience right now! I have no idea what it is. I’ve had ultrasounds, CT scan, reports came back with no findings, urologist says doesn’t see anything, another dr. Who specializes in Varicocele Says he see a small inaugural hernia. I have a really good massage therapist coming over tomorrow. Whom I spoke with today and explained to him what I’m experiencing and he thinks it could be a labrum issue in addition to the hernia.

[@docjenfit]

A labral issue could definitely contribute to the tightening up of muscles around the hip and inguinal area. So there's definitely a chance it could be contributing to this. Maybe try working on some hip mobility that is tolerable and opening up some stretches in that low abdominal/inguinal area.

[@lorilavel9707]

It could be a trigger point in your adductor Magnus muscle. See an acupuncturist who does trigger point release and then PT for rehab and strengenthing

Why does hip burn near bursa ?

[@docjenfit]

Sounds more like a hip bursitis or gluteal tendinopathy. Hard to say exactly why though.

Hi there so I am super worried I experienced like a back to back 2-3 pops on my Left hip yesterday evening I was bouncing from my right foot to left foot like dancing around and as soon as I landed on my left foot I felt a sharp pain with the 2-3 pops on the left hip then like warm fluid like sensation (which reminded me of when I tore my hamstring 😭 it’s hurts to walk /put any pressure on my left leg I am laying on my back to sleep at the moment it’s been about 8 hours ish Im unable to go to the doctor as my insurance is in another state and if it is a labral tear what can I do in the mean time till I can see a hip specialist or ortho 😭

[@docjenfit]

Definitely hard for us to give very specific feedback but I would give this video a listen and maybe try some of the recommendations we have in here!

What did you do. How are you now

[@gsmith4219]

This same thing happened to me about 3 mths ago dancing to mexican music very scary feeling then I stopped dancing and tried to walk back to our table as I walked I was limping and with a weird feeling. I not knowing what to do decided I'm going to self test and stretch to see how bad it is 😵 I'm glad I was fine I did a squat and no pain, I bend down and no pain but I tried to lift my foot and I couldn't even do 5in. off the ground back kick wasn't as bad but still not normal. Walked upstairs no pain but as soon as tried to lay down the pain was almost unbearable stayed on my back used a back massaging heated pad wrapped it on my thigh doing 15mins every hr. Until I fell asleep. Next morning I tried to go downstairs and it was painful made it to the couch wrapped it and turned on the heating pad and next day I made it into work, I been doing the butt muscles exercises and they've worked so far. Got back on the dance floor not long ago and I did ok still concerned because if I walk a distance I feel a pinch in my hip off and on but not severe, circular motion exercises while sitting has really worked for me. Hope your doing better now

I think how I tore my labrum is stupid I was moving my leg while laying down on a futon on the ground and when I moved my leg and then I heard this loud pop and I keep getting pop sounds and pain.

Always depends based on the severity! Would chat with an ortho about that!

Mine started with a fall. That was 6 years ago. Mine are now on both hips lower back like you made the C. It actually feels like the muscle is tearing. Sometimes it migrate down into my groin. My doctors have always been looking at my back bone for the problem because I’ve had trauma there before also.I’ve always known it’s been my muscle. Do you feel like this is labrum tear? Finally getting diagnosed but one doctor says labrum tear. The other doctor says chronic muscular pain disorder. Help! PS. Ever since it’s happened I’ve lost control in my legs. If they are straight I can only lift them about 12 inches off the ground. If I turn my ankle in side pushing towards the other foot it only goes about 3 inches. This is now in both legs.

[@docjenfit]

Hi Troy! Thanks so much for sharing. Unfortunately I'm unable to try and diagnose you based on information through a comment like this. The best thing would be to continue to see people in person for assistance. Have you tried seeing a physical therapist at all to get their assessment? That could be something good to check out. They will be able to give you exercises to try and work on the restrictions or barriers you are experiencing.

[@umit777.]

Did you have labral surgery? How are you now

[@KenWaysWorld]

Hello, I know this video was posted several months ago.. but can you tell me if I should be doing any of these exercises or not? Situation: my right side suffered 2 compressed disks and I just got the 2nd MRI that the doctor said there's a tear.. and I'm assuming it's the Labrum tear... but I have pain all the time.. especially when I walk.. or climb stairs.. my gluten are sore, behind my thigh hurts.. and it travels down my leg.. my calf is tight.. and the right side of my foot to the pinky are numb.. there is pain down the heel as well. Sometimes after I sit.. then get up.. and walk a little it will send shocking pain for a good 2 or 3 seconds.

[@docjenfit]

Thanks for reaching out! We really can't give specific recommendations for people based on their own cases through these comments. This video is purely for education. The best thing to do would be to consult with your doctor or a physical therapist in person to see if these would be appropriate for you.

Would a hip Labrum, Tear or Disclocation show up on an X/Ray? T.I.A

[@madonnadove]

No, you need MRI for soft tissue.

[@madonnadove]

Under an X-ray with contrast dye injected into the hip joint works.

[@jonathanhadley2555]

Yeah an MRI would show labral issues!

[@janecj9569]

I find this confusing on how to apply. I apparently keep reinjuring my labrem tear. Did it during yoga and have never been right since 2017. And I have a tendon tear from sit bone to thigh. I can hardly do anything now without pain. I've done 2 rounds of rehab, but just doesn't really get better. It's hard to sit and do nothing as I'm so active. Everyone seems to have a different opinion on what should be done. I think it's a whole body alignment problem, but nobody wants to address that.. they only want to address a single area. Once everyone realizes everything is connected and treat the whole body, nothing will get better for good. imo

[@docjenfit]

Totally agree! We tend to have these issues pop up because of restrictions elsewhere in the body! I agree that everything is connected and we can't really create true change unless we find where our baseline restrictions are everywhere and start working on them!

Labrum tears ruin any kind of physical activity. It seems impossible.
