What Causes Clicking Sensation On Hip While Walking?
I have FAI syndrom and had two surgeries on both right and left hip. The most recent one was one year ago. I had a arthoscopic procedure done by a specialist that included osteoplasty and repair of the torn labrum.Everything went well and recovery has been great. Recnetly, I noticed when walking up the stairs I can hear and feel a clicking sensation coming from my right hip and is making the same sound just prior to the surgery. Going up the stairs is again uncomfortable, but not too painful. How do I know that this is something serious again or just a rubbing ligament?
