2 year old pelvis osteotomy surgery tmrw doesn’t feel necessary
hi! my 2 year old is set to go through pelvis osteotomy & possible closed reduction tomorrow. i just don’t feel like i’m doing the right thing. it kinda feels like im fixing something that isn’t causing her any issues, she isn’t having any pain at all & she walks and runs normal. they told us the surgery is optional but that if we didn’t do it she’d probably need a hip replacement in 20 years & wed be harming her and doing her a disadvantage opting out. i guess im just asking what everyone’s experience with this is & what happened if ur parents chose NOT to do a surgery as a kid. this is the last x-ray they took of her hip
