What Is The Treatment For Fraying Of The Labrum Hip?

I ve been experiencing right hip pain for the past two years. I recently just had a MRI done. My orthopedic surgeon said that there was fraying of the labrum, but he said that there isn t anything he can do to help me with it. Should I ask for a second opinion?

Hello,

The surgeon is right. We cannot surgically correct the labrum. In fact, the role of the labrum is to stabilize the hip joint within the socket of the pelvic bone. So for now doing exercises to stabilize the hip joint via the muscule strengthening will be of the choice to look for. In most cases of my clinical practice of over 12 years, most of such cases have responded well to exercise which are mainly designed of stabilizing the hip joint.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
