I posted this in the WAG thread, but I thought I would post it here, too, if that's ok.
My daughter is a 14 yo, level 9 gymnasts and is having a lot of pain in her hip and groin area. Her hip area was uncomfortable for a month or so and last week she went down into the splits and had a more intense pain. She has not been totally off of her hip, but hasn't been to gym in a week and the the pain has not gotten any better.
Back to the doctor today, more x-rays and he didn't find anything. He has ordered an MRI to look for a tear.
Is a hip labral tear a career ending injury? My daughter is heart-broken, and honestly, so am I.
