Arthroscopic hip surgery helps but is little known.
Byline: Bob LaMendola
Every day, sports news mentions a pro athlete having arthroscopic surgery on a knee or elbow or shoulder. But on the hip? Hardly ever.
Arthroscopic hip surgery does happen, and can neatly relieve the pain of wear and tear from athletics or aging. The incisions are small and the recovery time is short.
Trouble is, it's a tricky procedure done regularly by only a handful of specialists around the nation. Doctors do not always send their injured patients to get it, even when they could.
As a result, weekend warriors, who are not in top shape and are more prone to injuries, miss out on a procedure that helps the pros.
