Hi, I had hip arthroscopy December 6, 2019 I’m about 3 months almost 4 Post op. and I’ve been doing all my exercises and not missed a PT appt.
My pain has been worse than ever and cannot sleep lots of the time comfortable and have to keep moving positions. My hip mainly feels achy,headache,a little bit of stabbing, or pinching either one. But also stiff a lot and having to move my leg. I recently have been getting a sharp stabbing pain in groin and used to back of the knee when I take a step most the time and have been getting exhausted quickly.
Surgeon says MRIs look great and made a appt for me to get the steroid injection.
At therapy I know someone who had the same surgery with the same doctor around the same time and we both do mostly different things. I use the stationary bike where I’m more leaned back and she uses the bike where it’s more of a regular stationary bike and she asked me if I wanted to use the one she had bcs using the one I use hurts her and I said yeah it hurts me too a little but my pt quickly said I have to use that one I was told to, this was about last week.
Before surgery and my whole hip pain I always had knee pain for 2 years maybe. They always were painful so I thought it was my knees. They both pop really loud and one knee can pop consecutively if I bend knee over and over. Even to this day I will have knee pain and also in the back of my knee is a recent pain that occurred but my knees feel congested or like a headache and I feel like I need to pop them and when I do sometimes they do feel better most the times others mainly one of them more achy then the other.
I’m very athletic I used to play soccer but had to stop because of surgery and recovery and thought I would be recovering better. Before surgery I was told I should recover quickly and good but my surgeon looked confused on why I couldn’t go far when bringing knee to chest.
At PT I mainly do the same things which is usually my exercises I do at home. My PT barely started massaging my thigh near incisions but my thigh was very sensitive but I went through it and next day was more stinging feeling and burning feeling on skin. They use the ESTEM on me with ice on top after most appt which I go to PT 2x a week and most the time it feels good after but pain comes back fast and leaves whenever but mainly stays most the time and walking helps or moving but too much walking or sitting is irritating. I can only walk for about 6 min tops then can’t anymore.
Sitting in class is very hard and Ice at school hurts top of skin cause of the sensitivity, burning and numbness still But not with the EStem I don’t feel it. This was long I’ve never typed out about this but please HELPPPPPPPL
