Hello I had a torn labrum in my left hip due to a work vehicle accident in 2018, since than I had the labrum repaired than I THR in 2021, I continued to have sharp groin pain when sitting to long than when standing .i had several cortisone injections in that area but they didn’t help much, I had a couple hip reversion doctors tell me I have bursitis from I MRI I had in 2023 they recommended I have I procedure called a iliopsoas released “ the doctor would go back in with a tool to cut and to lengthen the iliopsoas and hopefully by doing so it would help with the pain . I had that done at Mayo December of 2024 so far it seems a little better I have been doing PT since February of 2025 I am getting stronger in the legs and hip but that deep hip pain is just stubborn and does not want to go away so with that said I am having another cortisone injection in the next week or two we will see how that goes but myself and my PT feels this is the best it will get . The surgeon did say it can be a whole year to get the full benefit from the iliopsoas procedure that will be December of this year so we will see what happens . Thank you and good luck

My friend had a labrum tear like you describe about 10 years ago - she always had some level of pain, but now she said it "has faded into the background" as she gets older (past 80) with other issues.
