Labrum tear

Has anyone got back to running following a hip labrum tear? I’m currently waiting for cortisone  injections and hoping to avoid surgery. Feel like I might never run again 😞

    I had what the consultant called labrum shred, with both pincer and cam impingement. It took a long time after surgery to be back running (the injection did not work for me), I was on crutches for eight weeks. But I am back. I am faster (but older) and enjoy running more. 

    Don't rush back, find a consultant who does the surgery a lot (I had the choice of waiting 18 months on the NHS or paying so had the choice of consultant) and have a much physio as you can.
