Title: Slight Snap/Pop (no crackle)
Post by: katekosar on June 05, 2018, 06:12:53 PM
Hi guys.


It's been about four years since Dr. Brooks did my second resurface ... first the right, then the left.  The right seems perfect.  Every now & again, however, the left will do a little catchy thing, like a baby snap, when I do anything involving ROM or squattish stuff.  I'm 66 years old now. I moved from Cleveland out to the boonies in central Florida and am not really inclined to do revision stuff in any event.  But I would like to do some triathlons & half marathons again after a very long hiatus.  I am a slow BOP person and would do a 30:30 Galloway walk/jog to get where I'm going.


My question:  Is there any downside to an occasional mild catch or snap in the left resurface?  Obviously, pain is a different issue.  Occasionally it will throb in a very manageable way.  If it gets severe, I'll quit & be an old fart.  Sigh. 


Thanks for your thoughts.  Cheers & blessings.
