Parker's recovery will be tricky.
From Wikipedia re: osteitis pubis:
Surgical intervention - such as wedge resection of the pubis symphysis - is sometimes attempted in severe cases,[4] but its success rate is not high, and the surgery itself may lead to later pelvic problems.

The Australian Football League has taken some steps to reduce the incidence of osteitis pubis, in particular recommending that clubs restrict the amount of bodybuilding which young players are required to carry out, and in general reducing the physical demands on players before their bodies mature.

Osteitis pubis, if not treated early and correctly, can more often than not end a sporting individuals career, or give them an uncertain playing future.

Other sites put recovery rates from surgery at 75 to 95% so not great but better than wiki.
