Hi ! this is my first post !

I have had right hip pain and groin pain for nearly 3 yrs.

Im 43 and did 6 mnts of conservative therapy, yoga, bike, hike / walk , i had 3 injections and then begged for a solution! had hip arthroscopy after dr. found a cyst, 90% torn labrum, spurs...

i am 3 mnts post op and my pain has regressed to where i was prior to surgery. i am sadly convinced it didnt take! i have chronic groin pain , stairs, sitting ect . physical therapy is not progressing. I have a second opinion end of month with another surgeon.

Is it crazy to just want a new hip

and have 15-20 yrs of quality life!

any thoughts. i think ive done eveything i can .
