The post Basic Techniques on How to Treat Hip Impingement first appeared on The Physical Therapy Advisor.]]> A common reason for anterior hip pain, groin pain or even side of the hip or deep buttock pain can be hip impingement. Hip impingement, like most hip pain, is often multifactorial stemming from muscle strength imbalances (often due to weakness in the deep hip external rotators) and/or hip mobility imbalances. These mobility imbalances combined with muscle strength imbalances lead to altered hip biomechanics and ultimately, pain and inflammation in and around the hip labrum. These issues can be accelerated or started by a traumatic event or an overuse situation. The biomechanical imbalances cause the labrum of the hip to become inflamed and painful. This inflammation makes the biomechanical issues causing the impingement worse which just perpetuates the problem.

In this video, I go over the basics on how to treat hip impingement. I discuss what to stop doing immediately and what you can start doing to eliminate your pain in order to get back to activity quickly without surgery or painful injections.
