Treatment for Femoroacetabular Impingement at New Friends Colony-PhysioNautics
Femoroacetabular Impingement is similar to the impingement syndrome of the shoulder but it occurs at the level of the hip joint. The bones that are involved are head of femur & acetabulum which is a part of the pelvis. Similar to the impingement syndrome of the shoulder joint the femoroacetabular impingement limits the motion of the hip joint and induces the pain at the level of the hip joint. Some of the more common symptoms that the individuals suffering from Femoroacetabular syndrome suffers can be
1. Hip pain that worsens during physical activity,
2. Limping and/or
3. Stiffness in hip.
If the treatment is not provided and the condition worsens further it may lead to the deteriorating the cartilage that supports and provides the cushioning effect to the hip joint as well. Femoroacetabular Impingement is also more commonly known as Hip Impingement. This condition can be seen in individuals from vast variety of age groups. Hip Impingement can be caused due to various reasons the most common being bony outgrowth at the head of femur, bony outgrowth at the hip socket or probably both.
Role of Physiotherapy!
Physiotherapist may evaluate the patient manually to assess their range of motion, muscle strength, any tenderness, gait patterns and so on to determine the integrity of the hip joint. We can also perform some special tests to make a differential diagnosis and can further confirm the condition through the MRIs and X-Rays. This condition can be treated either conservatively or surgically through arthroscopy if required. Though whichever way you choose to get treated, Physiotherapy always plays a very crucial role in the complete rehabilitation of the condition. We can guide you through multiple special exercises as well as apply multiple modalities to alleviate your pain and improve your condition.
