February 25, 201016 yr Ok so I play for my schools baseball team. I just dislocated my hip and Im not sure if Ill be able to ride rougher rides. Anyone have advice or been through this problem cause that would stink.
February 25, 201016 yr Consult your physician and do what s/he recommends. If they say no riding, don't do it...
February 25, 201016 yr Author They say no high impact activities but when I asked about rollercoasters they said it depends try it out. I was seeing if anyone knew about how it works
February 25, 201016 yr i vote start with a more gentle ride, if it doesn't cause pain, one up it, if it hurts, don't ride. but ones that's rides signs say anything about "hip problems" i'd most likely avoid them.
February 25, 201016 yr One problem is if something is too much for you, you may not find out until the next day, as you are about to try to get out of bed. I vote for caution. You have only one hip that has been dislocated...you need to let it heal.
February 25, 201016 yr Author The more I walk on it the better it feels. Im pretty sure it will be ok. So I will be able to see you guys out on the track.
February 27, 201016 yr Well, I would avoid SoB... I saw that coming soon as I read the title! If that ride will even be avoidable, as in being ridable. I think that Vortex would be one to avoid, at least it isnt a neck injury, because then i would highly recommend you stay off Vortex.
February 27, 201016 yr Author Yeah for a neck injury I think the best ride to ride would be Invertigo. Just kidding.
February 28, 201016 yr I had a cervical fusion surgery back in 2003 that the surgeon put a pin and screew into the disks in my neckand I will most likly have more surgery soon. Needless to say, I do not ride any roller coasters period. The cause extreme jerky movements and I do not want to arrive in the station paralized. Edited February 28, 201016 yr by KI-ORIG-EMP
February 28, 201016 yr Author Yeah mine wont be that serious. Doc said Im fine so Ill c you guys on the track
March 1, 201016 yr My aunt is in the same predictament as you, but is just avoiding the rougher rides.
