I sound like snap, crackle and definitely pop?

Question

I gave birth 9 months ago. Since then, I've noticed that my hip bones pop, snap and crack constantly! I could be walking up the stairs and they make snap noises. I could stand up from being seated and they make loud pop noises. There isn't any pain accompanied with the popping and cracking, but I'm worried that maybe I will have problems in the future? Has this happened to anyone else? I'm concerned about this. --- Some quick background info: I gained about 25lbs during pregnancy (mostly all in my belly), I was the healthiest I've ever been and I walked 6 days a week for an hour per day.

Answer 1

If there is no pain associated with it I would worry that much!

Does you hip feel like it ever catches???

because IF it did then you might want to see your Doctor who could order and MRI or xrays to see what is going on.

It could be a torn labram in your hip which is just a tear the cartalige that lines your hip socket.  It is very common and sometimes there is no pain or symptoms associated with it.

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

It is normal as when you are pregnant your bones and ligaments get softer so it is easier for the baby to move down the birth canal it should settle down i n time though. If you start suffering pain do go and speak to your doctor
