THR Impingement
Hi SaraK! Thank you so much for telling me about your tenotomy. I kayak too and remember right before my THR that I went out by myself. Wasn’t a problem getting into the kayak, but I had to wait until some guy came to the shore to pull me up. Talk about embarrassing!! I haven’t been since my...- lucinda007

THR Impingement
We are in Naples FL for 1 month. So it’s a good opportunity to get serious about this weight loss. I’m going to something I’ve never tried before...eat half of what I would normally eat. I swam in the Gulf this AM and a little at the pool this afternoon. Done for today. Have you heard of the...- lucinda007

THR Impingement
Hi. Thanks for bumping me. It’s been so long that I forgot. Can I keep “Impingement” or do you want me to go to the original? I’d like to keep impingement if it’s ok. Just tell me if I need to do something different.- lucinda007

THR Impingement
Hi, My RTHR was Nov 28, 2017. I had an easy recovery for the first 6 months, but in the last 18 months or so, I’ve had groin pain on lifting my leg. I can walk with no pain. I have to lift my leg with my hand to get into the car or get on my bike. I went to a dr who did an ultrasound and...- lucinda007

THR Impingement
Hi. I feel like I’m getting a little better. I can lift my leg while lying on my back and I can flex my knee a little better, but pain occurs if my foot is about 12” from floor. Wow! This is very slow recovery. My dermatologist is a horse person and said that tendonitis in a horses leg is so...- lucinda007

Hello, I have waited to respond until I saw my OS. My appt was 5/7. He agrees with you. He believes it is tendonitis of the Iliopsoas. I am reading as much as I can about it. He suggested that I rest it my leg. I have been doing that for 1 month with some slight improvement (I can lift my...- lucinda007

V-R2F. Thank you for redoing my list. I have had trouble with the app on my iPhones so I have used the bonesmart.org instead (like I did when I first joined before my THR). I thought I had already sent the designated “spot”. I am sending this info on the app now. The other problem is that...- lucinda007

THR Impingement
Hi, the more I investigate, the more I’m thinking it’s the psoas muscle. It’s just so frustrating to have sailed through the replacement and physical therapy and now have this. The question is why is your psoas so sensitive to exercise and strength training 1 year after your surgery? Am I...- lucinda007

Thanks Jaycee. I called my OS and the receptionist suggested I get an X-ray here in FL and to take more Advil. 4 pills and the 6 hours later 4 more. Yikes. Not sure I want to do that. And yes, Marvy, I’m going to school on your story. I already asked the Dr office if they don’t see anything...- lucinda007

THR Impingement
@Mojo333, you are probably right. I’m going to just walk a little. Maybe float in the pool. A real pain to be in Florida and just sit. But, you said if it is something bad it might make it worse to walk and bike (those were my “taking it easy activities not pickleball or golf). Ugh. Oh well...- lucinda007

Thank you Marvy. Although I find your journey a little scary, I’m glad you finally are pain free. A few minutes ago (7am) I was sitting and having coffee. I sneezed and an incredibly sharp pain shot through me groin. I yelped and grabbed the arm of the chair. My poor husband doesn’t know what to...- lucinda007

Me again. I got my hip fixed now my brain doesn’t work..I would like to describe my pain to @Josephine and show her where it hurts. It is very strange. I am not sure it is groin. Also, I still can’t find the search at the top of any page. If Josephine can send me the graph, I can show where it...- lucinda007
