...but, but, but--when you finally can't put off that hip replacement any longer, you'll be so glad you had it done. Like a new lease on life. I can once again do things that I haven't been able to do in years, like walk the course when I golf.

Couldn’t agree more. You have to get a second opinion. I had a diagnosis after x rays for arthritis in both hips and Dr offered pain relief and surgery which I didn’t want. My physio recommended swimming and a range of exercises. I took his advice and six years on - pain has 99% gone/no need for pain relief. May not work for everyone (and it may not last) but its important to know there may be other options to either pills or surgery.

Agree 100%. Was told my hip was “shot to shit”. Got an injection using the fluoroscope over a month ago. I’m walking twice a day, doing my PT exercises, and losing weight. IMO surgery will always be an option, but it should be your last resort. Try other options first.

Scheduled for hip surgery in a few weeks. I’ve tried it all, and after several years of increasing pain - it’s time. Wish me luck!!

Definitely have had several opinions over the last 10 years. Went to an orthopedic surgeon only to discover that the arthritis in the right hip has remained the same for 10 years no progression even with 3 traumas to the hip. Will definitely watch more videos thank you.

I'm so happy you guys are doing this series!!

I had a total replacement 10 years ago on the left hip and it was great for about 2 years, but it's back to how it was in the beginning, I don't know what would have happened if I hadn't had the operation and the state it would be in now, most people I talk to say they have never looked back after the op, but it didn't happen for me

You guys are awesome ! I’ve learned a lot from you both. Thanks !

Thank you for discussing the fact that normal aging always causes pain and that images are not always an accurate indicator of why someone has pain. Surgery always has risk. Why not start with the least risky options and be a bit patient. New research out of Australia indicates that joints like load bearing....Tasha Stanton, a researcher, says the new mantra is "wear and repair" rather than "wear and tear".

You need to distinguish between bone on bone and mild arthritis. Bone on bone means no cartilage and bones are grinding. No PT can restore cartilage.

I love your comments #5 about heredity & lifestyle. Not sure who said it, heredity may load the gun but lifestyle can pull the trigger. Worth investigating for sure. We may live 10, 20, or 30 more years, why not live it as healthy as we can? Thanks Bob and Brad! :)

I’m almost done with my 2 month course of PT for a severe herniated disc in my L4-L5 making me immobile and losing control of bladder/bowel function and it has been unbelievably helpful. Not only is my back pain manageable, I rarely take ibuprofen, but my balance is better than before the herniation despite having preexisting neuropathy. While I might need surgery down the line, I’m extremely pleased with the the results of physical therapy, this is coming from someone who had major skepticism as my pain and problems were so severe. The only thing that still bothers me is some tightness in my right SI joint. I was wondering if you guys had any videos specifically related to loosening/getting the SI joints more mobile? It feels inflamed more than tight, but I’m unsure if that’s actually what’s going on. Thanks so much for your helpful and compassionate content!

Hello all. After 20 years of pain on left side, hip, pelvic area causing me limping, which I was sure was muscular and was relieved by lying on hard vinyl futon, yet it always returned from sitting on cushioned desk chairs or walking, I have finally found accidentally both a cause and a cure. I happened to see a senior's exercise video with various stretches which "cooled down" with a stretch of sitting on the edge of a hard dining room chair, while stretching the left leg backward, I can feel a wonderful stretch. Seems as if searching for a perfect cushioned desk chair is the CAUSE. I am walking normally, no need for Xrays! Yay!

I had discoid meniscus that needed correction, surgery was necessary as I was in pure agony just sitting in the back of a car unable to stretch my leg out, or at my desk in primary school. I was 19 when it was done, I've done PT many many times over the years and haven't had an issue till last year when a tendon got inflammation and was sent to ortho. Doc freaked out on me that BOTH my knees need to be replaced (I'm 38) as I'm bone on bone. I literally have zero pain, its a bit hard to lift with my knees and often don't ..... and if I squat to clean something its a struggle to get up. I was shocked at what she said. I plan on getting one done this summer, covid prevented me from getting it last year and with kids during school time its not a great idea. I do plan on strengthening the muscles before going at it, I was actually seeing a PT for my hip lol he said my recovery time would be quicker

It is very difficult to know what needs stretching and what needs exercise. I respect your efforts to help

Thank you Bob & Brad. I did not exercise for 7 weeks and sat all days (due to neck lift from aboard and doctor told me not to exercise). Then one days I had a bad pain radiate from top of my leg to lower leg. The neurologist surgeon thought it was from muscle tighten up. If I exercise it should go away. I went to physiatrist for pain medicine - he looked at x-ray and said i had severe hip arthritis. I was depressed though I had no hip pain at all. After a month of work out, my pain was gone. I think about hip replacement from the word - severe hip arthritis. I think that. It is more like nerve pain or periformis syndrome. Thank you for your video. I know that I do not have to rush to surgery or hip replacement. Just wait and see a little longer.

Thank you. I’ll take a look at these videos. I’m 70 and have had intermittent groin pain with exercise for a few years. My pt finally recommended seeing an orthopedic dr for an mri. It revealed mild arthritis. I plan to exercise my way through this!

Bob and Brad, what is your opinion on dry needling for pain for lower back and or hips?

I went from 'ooh my hips are stiff' to 'get me some serious meds' within 6 months. i was walking bent over. Argued with the doc for 2.5 years about this. All she would do is give me more meds. T4s are great. They insisted it was back pain. When they did cave in and got me hip xrays, they were very surprised that there was no trace of the cushioning tissue in the hip joints. Why, when the hips are in pain, does it 'feel better' to walk bent over?

Regarding your third lie, I disagree with you, as many active people in sports do wear out their joints through activity. For instance, dancers are noted for having arthritis of the joints in the feet over time. Professional basketball players soccer players, and tennis players often get osteoarthritis of the hip joint over time, due to repetitive motion, and constant twisting, and extreme stretching of the hip joints in these sports, and other sports as well. Thus I would say that moderate exercise is good for the hip and other joints, but lack of exercise, or very active or excessive exercise is bad. In other words, moderate exercise is best for the hip joints and other joints.

You've referred to your series on hips several times but it is not on your website as far as I can tell, it still says "coming soon". I've refreshed, etc. I've probably watched most of them due to recent issues but it would be nice to have them in one spot plus the PDFs. If I'm missing something, please advise.

Nice music!!

After being very fit and flexible, up to 2 years ago, told my hips are tight, and I need 2 hip replacements, which I don't want. I have no hip pain, it's in my knees, and thighs, when I walk 😭, also very stiff legs. I have a walker and crutcers to help me walk. Did hydrotherapy, but the pool was not safe, getting in and out. I do a workout with a stretch band, but not sure if it's helping. I have good and bad days 😭 Any suggestions? Was on the trial list for stemcell procedure, but that is on hold 😭I disagree, where you 2 say, non active people will have more problems, than active ones. I was active, and still developed tight hips, sorry but that saying, move it or lose it, is rubbish 😡

One big lie is that you should try an injection in the hip first. If it's worn out it's worn out, injection is a waste of time in my experience. Next week I'm getting a total replacement of my right hip, thankfully the left one is in good shape (so far). I had both knees done 3 years ago and a year later my right hip went out. I really could use a new right shoulder but I can worry about that later. I'm tired of being crippled.

I disagree with you, but respect your opinion and understand that each person’s situation may be different. In my case, while I’m under the BMI range to get the surgery, I recently got an injection, which eliminated all the pain after a day. I also stopped eating sugar. In the end I realize that it isn’t real and the arthritis is still in the hip, but what it’s done is bought me time. Time to lose more weight and have an easier post op recovery.

I use a stretch band for exercise, but it makes no difference 😭 Over the years I have had some falls, when I lost my balance, but bounced back. I was still exercising, and still flexible, right up until, 2 years ago. I'm 68 now, and it's depressing. Next for me is an Osteopath 👍. I was a lap swimmer as well, tried hydro, but the pool was dangerous getting in and out, and that was at a physios. How can I loosen tight hips, without being in pain?
