Well, the feeling of one side of your hip being out of place. Then twisting slightly to snap it back.
It's hip displasia.
Is this a thing for knees? Every once in a while, my knees just pop out of their sockets. It's incredibly painful, and I have to move them back by hand. I went to a doctor when I was like 18 though, and they took an x-ray, and couldn't find anything
Look into Ehlers - Danlos Syndrome, a connective tissue disorder. Sufferers describe similar symptoms.
Yes, my mother has this and this constantly happens. I also had it a few times. Not a good time.
Doctors don't know this syndrome often, how do you know it if I may ask?
I have it, the hypermobile type (hEDS)
Upside: reduced likelihood of osteoarthritis
Downside: all the pain, doctors think you're crazy
Thank you for sharing. I think I might have some symptoms, but definitely not all. The knees though :x
Do you manage without pain meds? My mom cannot unfortunately.
