Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Depends: If the hips develop normally then most will have no problems. If dysplasia persists then problems such as arthritis nay develop. An xray is needed to determine the hip position.

Hip dysplasia: You are certainly predisposed to having more problems with your hip as you age.
