  3. Femoroacetabular impingement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femoroacetabular_impingement

    Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a condition involving one or more anatomical abnormalities of the hip joint, which is a ball and socket joint. [1] It is a common cause of hip pain and discomfort in young and middle-aged adults. [ 2 ]

  4. Snapping hip syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapping_hip_syndrome

    Stretching the hip into extension and limiting excessive knee flexion avoids placing the rectus femoris in a position of passive insufficiency, thereby maximizing the stretch to the iliopsoas tendon. Strengthening exercises for the hip flexors may also be an appropriate component of the program.

  5. Sacroiliac joint dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacroiliac_joint_dysfunction

    Sacroiliac joint dysfunction is an outcome of either extra-articular dysfunction or from intraarticular dysfunction. SI joint dysfunction is sometimes referred to as "sacroiliac joint instability" or "sacroiliac joint insufficiency" due to the support the once strong and taut ligaments can no longer sustain.

  6. Deep gluteal syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_gluteal_syndrome

    Hip movements may also create dynamic impingement between muscles. For example, hip flexion, adduction , and internal rotation stretch the piriformis muscle and reduce the space between the piriformis and superior gemellus as well as the piriformis and sacrotuberous ligament .

  7. Tendinopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tendinopathy

    Tendinopathy is a type of tendon disorder that results in pain, swelling, and impaired function. [2] The pain is typically worse with movement. [2] It most commonly occurs around the shoulder (rotator cuff tendinitis, biceps tendinitis), elbow (tennis elbow, golfer's elbow), wrist, hip, knee (jumper's knee, popliteus tendinopathy), or ankle (Achilles tendinitis).

  8. Patellofemoral pain syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patellofemoral_pain_syndrome

    Hip abductor, extensor, and external rotator strengthening may help. [31] Emphasis during exercise may be placed on coordinated contraction of the medial and lateral parts of the quadriceps as well as of the hip adductor, hip abductor and gluteal muscles. [8] Many exercise programs include stretches designed to improve lower limb flexibility. [8]

  9. Piriformis syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piriformis_syndrome

    Hip adduction is a strengthening exercise for the piriformis muscle. A cable attached at the ankle can be used to adduct the hip, bringing the leg in toward the opposite side of the body. The same equipment can also be used for hip abduction, where the leg starts beside the opposing leg and moves out to the side, away from the body.
