Before knowing the importance of Medica stem cell therapy, let us know what happens with your hip in snapping hip syndrome. 


What is snapping hip syndrome?

The other names of snapping hip syndrome are the dancer’s hip or clinking hip syndrome. In this condition, you may hear a click sound from the hips after an activity like getting up from a chair, walking or swinging the legs around. For most of the people, the snapping sensation or sound is the only annoying symptom which they face. For those who indulge in too vigorous activities like athletics, running, swimming, they experience additional symptoms like pain, weakness, and easy fatigability. The sound of the popping or snapping is audible, and it usually decreases with adequate rest. 


Causes of snapping hip syndrome

Tightness in the muscles around the hip caused due to vigorous activities like athletics, dancing, sports, and gymnastics. It involves movement of the muscle or the tendon over a bone in the hip. 


Symptoms of snapping hip syndrome

• Snapping on the front or the backside of the hip region while walking, running, or performing other activities.

• Feeling of weakness in the limbs while performing activities.

• Tightness followed by swelling in the hip region. 

• Difficulty in performing daily activities.


Conventional Treatment for Snapping Hip Syndrome

The conventional treatment for snapping hip syndrome involves RICE (Rest, Ice therapy, Compression, and Elevation) formula, physical therapy of Iliotibial band stretch and Piriformis stretch, administration of injections like NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), and the use of corticosteroid injections. These modalities reduce pain and inflammation of the tendons. But they can provide only short-term relief. Furthermore, prolonged usage of these NSAIDs and corticosteroid injections may cause potential side effects like gastrointestinal, heart, and kidney problems. When it comes to surgery, it is the last resort if all the non-surgical options give poor outcomes. But hip arthroscopy surgery is invasive and involves the removal of damaged tissue. They will undergo a post-rehabilitation program after the surgery.


Regenerative cell therapy for Snapping Hip Syndrome

However, regenerative therapy can repair and restore the injured tissues quickly and naturally without any risk. Non-surgical regenerative therapies, including cell treatment and PRP therapy, involves the usage of cells or plasma from the patient’s body itself. Hence, there is no risk of rejection and allergy. This less invasive regenerative therapy can provide significant improvement within a few weeks with minimal recovery time. Hence, if you do not wish to go for surgery and are looking for an alternative to surgery, then you should consider Medica stem cell therapy.
