I am a 46 year old male who was born with both Perthes and hip displacea. I am physically fit, ride a bike and run. I prefer to run but I try to minimize the level of impact on my hip. I stumbled upon your group while looking for the pros and cons of getting my hip replaced at such a young age. I was hoping to find some personal direction by reading the stories and personal testimonies from others who have lived with the type of pain that I have lived with for the past 20 years. I am fearful to get a hip replacement regardless of the pain I live with because I don't want to have to stop running and skiing.
