  • Turns out that my hip pain is not muscular or ligament related, but labral tears.

    Probably in both hips.

    So no more running then.

    Bugger.

  • I'm no expert but I've certainly heard of people recovering from surgery after labral tears. As a related comparison, I've had keyhole hip surgery for femeroacetabular impingement (FAI) and whilst having as much time out from running as I did was extremely frustrating (on the bright side I got right back into cycling in a big way!) the surgery was 100% successful and I've hit big PBs across all distances since the surgery, with four years now relatively injury free. Best of luck getting treatment and I hope you can return to running long term.

  • Ah I had FAI too! Needed open surgery though as keyhole didn't work out, which was pretty grim (crutches for 3 months - though on the plus side I have epic scars and metalwork). How old were you when you got diagnosed?

  • How long was your convalescence?
