Re: pain in hip & thigh

[Guest guest]

Hello Heidi,

Thanks for sharing your experience and the comment from McMinn. We all worry

from time to time (especially if we are active with compact sports), and

it's good to compare pains.

Regarding pains and my reply to Heidi, I meant " impact sports " not compact.

I play competitive tennis on hardcourts and I have long term concerns. Almost

2 years post op, I'm doing great and getting faster, stronger, and more

muscle endurance with time. Last week I played a long 3 set match on slow

courts

and didn't cramp, so progress continues. In winter I play on indoor courts

that are somewhat cushioned.

Ideally, I'd like to settle in Florida and play on clay courts -- which are

easy on the joints. Are there any " sugar mommas " out there in Naples or Palm

Beach? (LOL)

Hi ,

I'm three years out from a left resurface. Last spring, I pulled

something in my left hip and had uncomfortable pain for a couple months.

Naturally I was nervous, and sent an xray over to Treacy. He said all was

well, and if I had done something really bad, like a fracture or the device

was loose, I would barely be able to walk. The pain didn't interfere with

my stretching or walking, but if I squatted down it hurt. Probably you've

just pulled something, but do let De Smet know, chances are he'll reassure

you.

Best,

Heidi
