Having smacked mine in skateboard wipe-outs, I've read that can disrupt blood supply to the joint/bones and lead to such. So far, so good here, at 68, when those falls were circa age 50-55.
Wishing and praying for the best for you.
I probably have fallen on that side a time or two in the past. But, I couldn’t tell you when. In my bowling days, I always slid on my left leg, that puts some pressure on that hip joint. As for my back, I’ve had issues with it for decades. Just part of getting older, not old. I’m not going down without a fight though. I’m going to ride my bike or a trike till I’m told I can’t anymore for whatever reason.
