<s>[INST] I am a 48 year old active male that has a sports related ( racquetball) injury. I have 2 herniated disks L4-L5- 4-5 mm and L5-S1 2-3mm along with right hip issues- moderate tear of the posterior labrum also probable small tear of the superior ace tabular labrum- moderate to marked arthrosis of the right hip with loss of the majority of articluar cartilage with prominent joint space narrowing and subchrondral cyst formation. What are my chances of recovery without surgery? [/INST] Hi, I value your concern regarding the symptoms. I have gone through your symptoms, and in my opinion your symptoms are more important than the findings you have put above, as per your reports you need surgery both for your spine and hip, at spine discectomy and at hip replacement surgery needs to be done, but as I told you depending on your symptoms this may change. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health. Special note-Any medication prescribed needs to be taken after consultation with your personal doctor only. </s>
