Northwest Chicagoland Live interviews Dr. Benjamin Domb of the American Hip Institute on the importance of early treatment for hip injuries

If left for too long, the tears encourage the development of arthritis,” Domb says. “My No. 1 goal is to cure arthritis through early diagnosis and treatment of the original injury. When labrum tears are treated quickly, arthritis is prevented before it can set in.

Pain In The Hip: Common Causes Of Hip Pain - Sports Injuries, treatment and performance information

Throughout my career, I have often heard people reference the hip as the wallflower or “forgotten joint,” when the hip is one of the largest and most important joints in your body. While the hip does allow for a wide range of movement, it is not indestructible, and many people of all ages suffer from hip pain and injuries.

But even at age 20, his hips started to ache, and not just during exercise. He's not unusual.

Raising the bar for a successful hip replacement or resurfacing: Making a joint that feels so normal, the patient forgets they had surgery.
Source: healio.com

In this study, we sought to raise the bar for success in hip arthroplasty, essentially defining success as a surgery that the patient forgets that they had. Using the new forgotten joint score, we were able to show that the patients in our series almost never think about their hip surgery, as their resurfaced or replaced hips feel like and function like a normal hip,” study co-author Benjamin G.
