Here's an idea on how to prevent hip surgery!

Studies show Glut/hip surgery often follows Low Back Pain

Gluteus Medius tears requiring surgery are often seen with Lumbar Pathology – Are you headed down that road?

In a recent study in the Journal of Orthopedics, it was found that 87% of patients undergoing Glut Medius repair surgery had a prior history of lumbar pathology.  This study may suggest that unresolved lumbar pathology can lead to future hip surgeries.  Wouldn’t it be great to avoid that pitfall?  The first thing to recognize is the presence of lumbar pathology.  If you find yourself experiencing back pain, it’s a good idea to seek professional help, to correct the issue correctly the first time.  This will help prevent future pain from occurring and as evidenced by this article, future surgeries as well.
