Hi all,
I am writing to ask for anyone who has had psoas syndrome or problems related to a shortened psoas. Please could you tell me what were your symptoms and limitations and what treatment has helped you get back to doing what you like, if it has?
I have had right hip resurfacing two years ago but still get lots of pain in hip flexor area when bending down, tying shoe laces, bringing knee straight up or across the mid-line, sprinting, kicking. Initially I had lots of groin pain post surgery which subsided as I got stronger but the hip flexor tightness and impingement has never gone. Post surgery I also find my hamstring feels super limited and tight, but I feel that I think because the hip does not move freely. Other consultants have seen my x-rays and suggested that it could be psoas related as the acetabular component appears correctly positioned in x-rays. I had an ultrasound for psoas tendonitis which again showed no bursitis. Perhaps it is just at a constant shortened state?
Thanks,
Josh
