  2. Thomas test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_test

    If the iliopsoas muscle is shortened, or a contracture is present, the lower extremity on the involved side will be unable to fully extend at the hip. This constitutes a positive Thomas test. [ 2 ] Sometimes, with a very flexible patient, the Thomas test will be normal despite a psoas dysfunction being present.

  3. Hip examination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_examination

    Assess any pelvic tilt by keeping an index finger on each ASIS. Normal (Trendelenburg negative): In the one-legged stance, the unsupported side of the pelvis remains at the same level as the side the patient is standing or even rise a little, because of powerful contraction of hip abductors on the stance leg.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trendelenburg's_sign

    Damage to the motor nerve supply of the lateral gluteal muscles (gluteus medius muscle and gluteus minimus muscle) Polio involving L5 (foot drop may also be seen because L5 innervates the tibialis anterior muscle). [3] Damage to the superior gluteal nerve. Temporary or permanent weakness of the lateral glutei Tendinitis. Penetrating injury.

  5. Hip pain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_pain

    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 ...

  6. Sacroiliac joint dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacroiliac_joint_dysfunction

    Gaenslen test - This pain provocation test applies torsion to the joint. With one hip flexed onto the abdomen, the other leg is allowed to dangle off the edge of the table. Pressure should then be directed downward on the leg in order to achieve hip extension and stress the sacroiliac joint. [1] [2]

  7. Movement assessment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movement_assessment

    Movement assessment is the practice of analysing movement performance during functional tasks to determine the kinematics of individual joints and their effect on the kinetic chain. Three-dimensional or two-dimensional analysis of the biomechanics involved in sporting tasks can assist in prevention of injury and enhancing athletic performance.

  8. Deep gluteal syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_gluteal_syndrome

    The purpose of physical therapy is to restore normal hip and spine biomechanics. This is done by strengthening and stretching the involved muscles (external hip rotators) as well as sciatic nerve glides. [5] [2] There should also be an emphasis on core stabilization (muscles involved in posture, balance, and overall body strength) and ...

  9. Psoas sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psoas_sign

    The patient lies on his/her left side with the knees extended. The examiner holds the patient's right thigh and passively extends the hip. Alternatively, the patient lies on their back, and the examiner asks the patient to actively flex the right hip against the examiner's hand. [3] If abdominal pain results, it is a "positive psoas sign".
