Are you experiencing persistent hip pain or limited mobility that’s holding you back? Hip arthroscopy offers a cutting-edge, minimally invasive solution designed to diagnose and treat a variety of internal hip problems. This advanced procedure can often delay, or even prevent, the need for a full hip replacement.
It effectively addresses issues such as painful bony overgrowths (impingement), bothersome cartilage tears (labral tears), and disruptive snapping hip symptoms.
Why Choose Hip Arthroscopy for Car Accident Injuries?
Unlike traditional open surgeries, hip arthroscopy is performed using several small incisions, often no bigger than a buttonhole.
Through these tiny openings, a small camera and specialized instruments are carefully inserted into the hip joint.
This “keyhole” approach to hip surgery considerably reduces the amount of trauma to the surrounding muscles and tissues, leading to significant benefits for you, including:
- Improved recovery times: Getting you back on your feet sooner.
- Post-operative pain reduction: Making your recovery period more comfortable.
- Smaller, less noticeable scars: For a more aesthetic outcome.
- Speedier return to day-to-day activities: Helping you get back to your life faster.

Preparing for Your Hip Arthroscopy Procedure
Your hip arthroscopy may be a standalone solution to your pain, or it could be a valuable diagnostic step before other hip interventions, depending on your specific condition. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, which means you will be comfortably asleep throughout the operation.
To ensure the anesthesia is effective and safe, you will need to follow specific fasting instructions, typically for up to 24 hours beforehand. Your doctor will provide you with detailed guidance regarding your pre-operative diet and restrictions.
For your safety and convenience, it is crucial to arrange for someone to drive you home after your procedure. You will be unable to operate a vehicle for at least 24 hours after receiving general anesthesia.
We understand that any surgical procedure can bring up questions or concerns. Our compassionate and knowledgeable team is here to support you every step of the way. We strongly encourage you to ask any questions and share all your concerns so we can provide you with the most comfortable and positive experience possible.
