In A), Stretch of a right hip flexor, iliopsoas. The weight bearing knee (left) does not go past the toes. Leaning forward for a good stretch and holding it for about 15 to 20 seconds is needed.

The specific boundaries (top, bottom, left, right, front, back) are defined as Posterior (back): the gluteus maximus [1] Anterior (front): posterior acetabular column + hip joint capsule + proximal femur [1]

The labrum is attached onto the bony rim and transverse acetabular ligament. It is triangular in cross-section (with the ...
Pain in the groin, called anterior hip pain, is most often the result of osteoarthritis, osteonecrosis, occult fracture, acute synovitis, and septic arthritis; pain on the sides of the hip, called lateral hip pain, is usually caused by bursitis; pain in the buttock, called posterior or gluteal hip pain, which is the least common type of hip ...
A teardrop-shaped lower portion gives origin to the iliofemoral ligament of the hip joint and borders the rim of the acetabulum. [1] Anteromedially and inferiorly to the AIIS is the iliopsoas groove, the passage for the iliopsoas muscle as it passes down to the lesser trochanter of the femur.
