Ultrasound for Labral Tear/FAI

I've finally been listened to by a GP after over three years of sometimes debilitating hip pain. Something "snapped" in my groin while I was doing not much at all in January 2021. Xray found FAI and I have had a couple of rounds of physio with no improvement. Things have worsened in recent months and finally a GP isn't just sending me for a third xray and round of physio. She has suggested a Labral tear and referred me for an ultrasound. Does anyone else here have FAI or a labral tear? What are the treatment options? Will I just be sent for physiotherapy again? Thanks!

Personally - if therapy is not working, perhaps step up to steroid injections? And if that does not work, to surgery? Surgery is always the last resort, but sometimes there is no other way to resolve pain...
