I had surgery a year ago to fix a torn labrum in my right hip, plus shave down a bone deformity. There was a significant chance that the surgery might not work - statistically the probability of success goes down the older you are, and I’m in my forties. Anyway I had the one-year follow-up with my surgeon today and he’s super happy with how I’m doing. I’ve noticed a significant decrease in pain and an improvement in functionality, and he says that bodes well for my long-term success. And he said I can increase my weightlifting more aggressively than I have been (I’ve been a little paranoid about hurting my hip), which was great to hear!
