Hip

Hip impingement:

Sometimes referred to as FAI (femoroacetabular impingement), is a condition that can cause hip pain and restrict range of motion. It can be caused abnormalities on the femoral head or hip socket (acetabulum). Symptoms often include hip pain, stiffness and difficulty with some ranges of motion.

Hip arthritis:

Typically related to wear and tear of the cartilage in your hip joint. It can lead to pain, stiffness, and loss of mobility.

Labral Tears:

Commonly associated with FAI (femoroacetabular impingement), is a condition that results in damage to the soft tissue ring that surrounds the hip joint. It can be associated with popping or clicking, sometimes even the feeling of instability or locking.

Avascular Necrosis:

Also known as hip osteonecrosis, occurs when there is an interruption in blood flow to the femoral head resulting in bone tissue death. It can be caused by a large number of different factors such as trauma, steroids, alcohol use, and some medications or diseases. It can results in hip pain, decreased range of motion and can occur quickly over a few weeks to month time period.

Glute tendinitis/bursitis:

Very common condition that results with pain on the side of your hip. Can be related to the bursa itself becoming inflamed or the gluteal tendons that attach there. Commonly seen in middle age females, and can present as pain with rolling on that side as night, pain with rising from seated to standing and first few steps.
