[QUOTE="Iriana, post: 699497, member: 20802"] Hi, you posted this a couple of years ago and I am not a parent, I'm actually a patient. When I was 15 I was diagnosed with idiopathic chondrolysis of the hip. I had grade 2 "arthritis" I guess is what you can call it and the set me up on a plan. I did physical therapy for about 5 months and my pain went away. I was able to continue cheerleading throughout the whole process because the doctors said it would be like extra PT. After I graduated high school I started working and was on my feet all the time, I was still in competitive cheerleading until 2 days after my 18 birthday I got into a car accident and ended up having a fracture in my hip. Ever since then it's been down hill from there. I'm now almost 20 and have a grade 4 arthritis in my hip. The only thing that has so far help me slightly manage the pain is swimming(being in water), or the tramadol that I am taking. I'm on crutches have been for about 9 months, can barely walk at all, no longer able to work or cheer, and honestly life has been a bit difficult. It's exhausting and painful to have to attend university and be in pain all the time. I have tried cortisone shots, PRP injection, Synvisc injection, stem cell placements and nothing so far. So now honestly my only option to take the pain away and for me to be able to live happily is if I do surgery I'm planning on having it during Christmas break for school purposes and stuff. [/QUOTE]
