Not certain of term: It sounds like the do claims you have dislocated the pubic symphysis and this may occur but this may be unlikely. I think you need another evaluation/second opinion. See a rheumatologist in dayton.

Here's my take: Sounds like you may be referring to a disturbance of some kind involving the pubic symphysis. This is a region in the anterior part of the pelvis that articulates in the center. This connection is composed of a type of tissue caused cartilage which can be agrravated either by some sort of trauma , but can also happen acutely without any identifiable cause.A hip injection may be indicated.
