Physiotherapy for Hip Impingement: When You Can’t Put Up With the Pain Anymore

Hip impingement, which is also known as femoral acetabular impingement (FAI), is a painful condition that is due to abnormalities in either the surface structure of the tip of the femur that attaches to the hip or the surface of the part of the hip that attaches to the tip of the femur, called the acetabulum. The condition results in the rubbing of the femur head against the rim of the socket when you flex your hip (flexing the hip occurs when you move your thigh or knee up to your chest).

The cause of FAI is poorly understood. However, it may be due to congenital factors as in the case of people being born with such an innate anatomical anomaly. On the other hand, it may be a degenerative disorder that develops as a person ages like arthritis, for instance. Nevertheless, lots of experts are convinced that FAI may occur as a result of the two. Physiotherapy for hip impingement may aid patients to recovery but options like surgery may be inevitable.
