About Dr. Thomas Youm
Dr. Thomas Youm is an orthopedic practice in New York, New York offering knee replacement, ACL and arthroscopy. The practice has 2 board-certified and fellowship-trained physicians and has been in practice since 2014. Patients rate it 4.6 out of 5 across 109 Google reviews. Same-day appointments are available. Femoroacetabular impingement is what predisposes patients to tearing their labrum. Most patients can be diagnosed with a good history, physical exam, X-rays, and an MRI (sometimes an MR arthrogram which is an MRI with contrast injected into the joint is necessary). We do not know for sure, but there seems to be a significant association between labral tears and arthritis in the hip - that is to say no study demonstrates a direct cause of arthritis by labral tears.
