Hello - I was diagnosed with hip dysplasia in 2016 (46 years old) while training for a half marathon. As active individual who loved running, my Dr. advised me not to run and try other exercises which I did. I was given a script for PT to help me with severe pain and it helped, however after doing exercises on my own the pain would come back so I had a cortesione shot which lasted for about a year then another which lasted 6 months and then more PT to manage the pain. Things have gotten progressively worse and I walk with a limp, I in in constant pain walking, sitting, standing, sleeping. 

On June 16/17 I had two contrast MRIs of my hips and it showed left side labrum tear, gluteal tear of the minimus and medius and excess fluid in the bursa and on the right tears in the gluetal minimus and medius. I also had a terrible reaction to the dye in the MRI ( so they say) which created terrible pain and I was not able to walk on my left side so used crutches for a month. I was given steroids to help with inflammation and pain.
