"Clicking" Hips

[DisgruntledGirl]

Before I get started I figure I might explain my usage of certain terms. I'll use the term like "the bone popps out" or "the bone popps back in"... when I think those are probably severe terms for what is actually going on... they are just the closest way to describe the "feeling" that I'm getting cus I would assume the bone "popping out" would be *a lot* more painfull than what I am experiencing.

Ok these days whenever I try to do a simple chudan or jodan mae geri often times it will feel as though my leg bone will pop out of socket of my right hip (and only right hip the left one is always fine) during the actual kick and will sorta pop back in at the landing. This I feel from both a slight popping sound during both the kick and landing and also the feeling of the bone moving around and then settling back into place. Sometimes I will not actually feel anything out of place untill the next kick's landing in which I will feel slight discomfort and will then have to wriggle my hipps around a bit until I feel the sensation of the bone aligning properly again and then all is well.

There is never any real "pain" during this whole process, at the most some slight discomfort from time to time especially in the cases where I actually have to purposly do something by wriggling to get things feeling right again.

Any exercises anyone might recommend to maybe strengthen that right hip joint to hopefully prevent any serious type of injury from occuring?

Cus really thats all I'm worried about... if it perpetually did this for all my life I could deal with that, but I dont want to one day dislocate something if there was anything I coulda done to prevent it.

I would see a Doctor or an Exercise Physiologist about this. They may have better advise for you.
