    Hmmm, what a vague diagnosis so far - Frustrating!!!

    I honestly don't know, however I do know that there are a few 'versions' of hip issues covered by dysplasia - for instance, Baileys balls were definitely in the sockets fine the whole time, however it was the angle at which the hips were developing/growing as such that determined his dysplasia.

    However, having said that I do know from the surgeon we had that often mild issues are fixed with no treatment and normal growth and development have a way of sorting things out, so it may just be that DSs ball socket is immature and a bit of monitoring as he grows is all that is required. Hope that helps babe!
