Hello ehealthy people!
After much deliberation i've decided to
make a post of me own. I've been reading
some of your posts, that seem to be
similar in many ways to my little
"technical difficulty", but none exact.
(such in any case is hard to find!)
anyways, here I am, eighteen years old,
not overweight, otherwise healthy,
previous broken bones include left wrist,
left toe, right tib\fib (3-4 years ago).
I'm currently having some major
difficulties with my right hip. It is an
awful internal pain that starts (as I can
imagine) right around the ball joint and
radiates towards the knee. When I walk
funny (rotating the straight leg either
l\r ) there is a sharp "snap" followed by
a numbness. My thought is that is snaps
slightly out of place, thus, I stand on my
left leg, holding a wall and bring my
right leg up slowly so that my knee is
near my chin. Another shotgun-audible
"crack" can be heard (much to the
displeasure of others)as the joint
replaces itself, and I continue on my way,
limping as necessary.
I convinced myself not to make a fuss, and
it didn't hurt this badly for two years
since it started...Suddenly I found myself
unable to run well, and more recently,
have started having difficulties with
staircases. It had taken about three
months for a doctor to see me...And i'm on
the waiting list until january to get an
mri.... I imagine that this is more than
a muscle-cartilage problem, just from the
sound and feel..
Anyone else experienced anything like
this? (( I imagine that most people with
these type of problems are in their
eighties

....))
i'd like to hear of any
trials\tribulations\and otherwise "input"
on such situations!
Thanks alot!
