Hip Labral Tear: Is It Surgery Worthy?

Do you have a hip labral tear and you've been told you need surgery? Maybe you don't. Most hip labral tears are NOT surgery worthy. Hip Labral Tears or FAI have become the new diagnosis in town because of improved imaging. But, just because it shows up on a image does not mean it is your source of pain. This video answers the most common questions about hip labral tears.

    I’m 12 weeks post op for FAI and labral tear. Did PT for two years, am a competitive swimmer, I worked my butt off to try to get it to stabilize and it just wouldn’t work. 12 weeks post op and finally pain free and getting the stabilizing muscles to fire and work again. Was the last resort but im glad I did it.

    I am just about to arrive at my three week post-op FAI of my left hip. I had a malformation of my femoral head that according to MRI findings was congenital. I went from running like a deer leaping with joy to almost falling while simply walking. The pain was deep and unbearable most of the time and my daily life took a drastic decline, from cleaning to grocery shopping I was challenged. I started off with PT but was in so much pain I could not finish. I liked you video. One thing in your list that you may want to add is the question of where the labral tear is on the labrum. Mine was superior/anterior and I was told that a labral tear in that region is definitely felt more than a posterior tear. I was also told and it made sense that, the region of superior/anterior is painful because it's the part that we use most for walking and running, so therefore felt more. After surgery I was told I had one continuous tear that left my larum "flopping" from 10 o'clock to 1 o'clock. I believed it, as I lived in agony for over 1 year before finally getting this surgery. They originally thought I only had a small tear and then a second opinion with another MRI, done on a Tesla 3.0, revealed what was thought to be two seperate labral tears. However, once in surgery, the surg cam revealed the large flopping labral tear. So two things to add to your video that make sense and should not be ignored is the fact that if you have a congenital malformation, that must be considered as well as where the tear is located. If one does not consider these facts into the "should or should I not" get surgery, they could really hurt themselves worse by not getting surgery and continuing to work on musculoskeletal side of the issue to no avail. I didn't have a prior injury, this was due to a misshapen femoral head and over time caused my labrum to anteriorly tear! No injury from a workout gone wrong. Also, your video absolutely does not apply to someone who had a workout injury, that already has strong muscles like glutes, quads, and core. Granted, some folks can always stand to firm those aforementioned areas, however your video is geared towards someone who truly is lacking strength in those areas. Someone who works out regularly has already done that work and their labral tear is likely caused from something else. Blessings to all on that labral tear journey. I hope you find the right surgeon and lmk if you want my surgeons contact information as I will gladly refer you. He and his team are like a band of healing angels from heaven!

    I developed a hip groin pain 18months ago and was told I had early signs of hip arthritis and perhaps a torn labrum. I hobbled around for more than 10months cos I was stuck overseas due to Covid and couldn’t get proper medical treatment. At the same time I was also dealing w a fractured wrist , surgery that went badly wrong. Upon my return immediately after I removed the too large for my wrist plate I had a cortisone injection for my labrum tear . It did not help. I then had a course of PIT injections and PRP about two months ago . My pain levels over this year has improved from 8 to 4. I do physio, hydro and myorfascial release. My groin is still sensitive and inflamed. What kind of PT do you recommend?

    Hello, Lori, Thank you for the great video. I would like to have your opinion on my story: I have discoid meniscus on both of my knees and both have a tear (one of them has 2 surgeries). I had to go to a ski course for my university while my knee was still recovering from the surgery. So, in order to save my knee, I had to put more pressure to my other leg. On the last day of the ski course I experienced pain in my hip joint. This pain hasn’t gone away for 9-10 months. Two months ago I did a MRI, which showed that I have labral hip tear on both of my hips (of a higher degree on the leg that I had put more pressure on during the ski course) I got 1 corticosteroid shot (a month ago), followed by a corticosteroid shot + hyaluronic acid(1 week ago). However, my pain still hasn’t decreased. The big problem is that my pain is dull, deep and constant (sometimes 24 hours a day because I can't sleep more than 4-5 hours a night due to the pain). The main thing that is worrying me is that I have constant pain even when I'm lying or sitting (i.e. when I’m relaxed). The pain gets exacerbated(sharp), when I flex my glutes hard(e.g. while i do hip extensions, especially from closed chain). There isn’t a suitable PT in my town that I can go to. (for long term work: 8-12 weeks), so I’m not sure how can I proceed with this. I’d really appreciate your advice on what can I do to improve my condition.

    That is a common mistake. I had a massive pain in knee - then in groin from excessive cycling and powerlifting. Of course continued to power lift and added more mobility and stretching excersises. Of course it did it all worse. I feel stiffnes in my whole leg. The pain is not making life impossible, it's just very frustrating and makes me think about it all the time. I tried everything from the guys on the internet telling me "you don't need a surgery", all the excersises, I modified my activities, nothing helped. So I guess sometimes surgery is an answer.

    It took my pain mgt team forever to even diagnose my injury as a labrum tear because initially I went in and they misdiagnosed me with si pain. After getting a few injections in those joints I didn’t need which just made my hips more the obvious problem they did mri and confirmed I have pretty significant tears in both hips, though currently only my right hip seems to stop me in my tracks pain wise. I have done pt twice now, before and after steroid injections, and more recently the last steroid injection I got into my right labrum didn’t work this time so they opted for prp and that’s been a hellish journey. I’m about 10 days out from that having been done and it really feels like physically I struggle walking more now than before. At least before it would just become so physically painful I couldn’t continue walking ,now I feel like the muscles are angry, tight and fatigued . My next option is the final which of course is surgery

    So do I get it or a new hip? I've had three injections. This last one hurts so bad and didn't really help as much. So I'm going to crossroads as to which direction do I go. Yes I have arthritis in the hip too. I was hoping one of the doctors whether it be hip or the labrum would point me in the direction of physical therapy to at least strengthen that leg before I decide on either surgery but neither one of them seem to think it's very important. I know that leg is a little bigger and I know my ankle tends to swell when I'm hurting in the leg and pelvic junction that's where my pitch and pain is. Basically I'm kind of out of options for doctors where I live. Also two years ago my plantar fasciitis flared up, instead of going to my original doctor I decided to go one closer. Big mistake! And because it took 6 months before she gave me my shot, yes I should have just gone ahead to my original doctor The pain was so bad in my foot and then that my opposite leg is where my hip problem is really flared up and I put that off not knowing what it was exactly so I couldn't walk. I walked 5 days a week with my best friend 3 mi everyday and I got to the point I couldn't do it anymore so needless to say wait on the last 2 years at least 25 lb. I've lost 5 and I'm stuck because of I have to watch what I can do when this leg hurts I have to stop or else I'm wanting three heating pads and a whole bottle of Ibuprofen.

I had an ultrasound done and a hernia check and was told there was no hernia I knew something was wrong so I pushed for the MRI where it was discovered I had a hip labral tear I waited eight months while doing Cortizone injections for it to heal but it never did I just completed the surgery yesterday and start physical therapy in three days however I am worried that I might have a hernia as well….

I always keep my glutes activated and pelvis locked in when in my lifts to ensure i stay healthy below 90 (usually do my routine glute activation exercises). For me being below 90 has always been more comfortable then at 90 or above.

    Lori, is 2-3 months enough time to stabilize the hips? I've seen pole fitness people have incredible hip stability but it took years of work to get there. Is it possible to do PT for longer to build up the hip stabilizing muscles? Also, what do you think about pole fitness for FAI?

    Hi. I have had hip pain for over a year and I’m only 15. I just recently got diagnosed with the labrum tear last month. Last year I did months of therapy to try to help what my doctors thought was “bursitis”. I was able to play pain free for a month ish and thought my pain was gone. One day I was running up the stairs and I felt This extremely painful pinching in the hip and I could feel it in the hip joint and labrum area deep inside. This is when I went to get an MRI. They found the tear and it was non-displaced. So it was questionable whether or not to get surgery. My doctor told me since I’m young and an athlete and I’m still having pain AND the fact that it’s been over a year and I’ve already done therapy that I should get the arthroscopic surgery. I have it scheduled for the 28th of may and I’m still questioning it. I also have one more question. My mri reports say I have no bone deformities or FAI / impingement of any kind. Although my doctor says that I do. So I’m very worried that he is unsure of my diagnosis. THANK YOU

    I’ve had a labrum tear 8mm for 27 years with 3 cysts . My hip feels like it wants to come out of socket at times as well as a catching on inner groin and tearing feeling. Starting with popping but now it’s stuck. I hurt it in PT while rehabbing my spinal fusion. I’m now on 2 months of hip PT and not much improvement. My main concern is putting it off and then developing major arthritis that turns into a hip replacement. Any thoughts?

    Excellent video, but according to Dr. John Gibbons (DO) torn labrum causes chronic tight psoas (to protect the hip joint), which inhibits glutes, my left glutes won’t fire with the PT causing all sorts of imbalances as well as tight piriformis and a bit of si joint issues . Any advise?, I’m doing core activation and strengthening. What’s the best hip stabilization exercise program. Haven’t been able to play soccer in 2 yrs 😢 so frustrating Thanks

    True. Again, there is a time and place for surgery especially if the bony environment is a key player. That said, most people do not have pain from the bone impingement but from myofascial pain. So, on the flip side, they get surgery but their pain never changes.
