Hip & Pelvis



Strongest articulation in body
Most stable articulation
Well protected & surrounded by muscle on all sides


Muscles of back, abdomen, hamstrings, quadriceps, abductors,
adductors, and gluteals attach
Freely moveable, ball-and-socket
Function of Pelvis

Transmit weight from axial skeleton to LE when standing
or to ischial tuberosities when sitting



Provides attachments for various muscles that insert onto and
control LE
House parts of digestive and urinary tract
Houses reproductive systems





Hip extension
Internal rotation

Adductor Muscles
Iliotibial Band


Thickening of the fascia
Runs up outside of thigh



Top of hip & crosses knee
Holds our leg straight
when we stand, giving the
larger thigh muscles a
chance to rest
Tensor Fasciae Latae (TFL)
Common Injuries and Conditions
Of The Hip and Thigh
Bursitis

Most frequent location is
over lateral hip





Greater trochanteric bursitis
Tenderness lateral hip
Made worse by walking,
running, or twisting hip
Insufficient stretching or
warm-up
Treatment:




Limit activity
Stretching exercises
Ice & ice massage
NSAIDs
Fracture

3 classifications:





Femoral neck
Intertrochanteric
Subtrochanteric


Causes:



Falling (elderly)
Extreme trauma (car
accidents)
Impact injury (athletics)
Signs & Symptoms


Leg may appear abnormally
rotated
Cannot move hip without
pain
X-ray to confirm
Treatment

Depends on fracture type
and medical condition
Fracture
Quad & Hip Flexor Strain




Common in those sports
that require jumping,
kicking, or repetitive
sprinting
Quad: rectus femoris
Hip Flexor: rectus femoris
and/or iliopsoas
Treatment



Ice
Compression
NSAIDs

Rehab


Progressive
Sport specific
Hamstring Strain

Causes









Sudden, explosive starts and
stops
Chronic overuse
Making quick start or stop
when leg extended
Overtraining (fatigued
hamstring muscles)
Muscle imbalance (quad
muscles overdeveloped)
Inflexibility
Overstretched
Insufficient warm-up,
stretching, or conditioning
Direct blow while muscles
contracted

Signs & Symptoms





Sharp pain (most common in
belly of muscle)
Bruising
Swelling
Loss of strength
Feel or hear “pop”
Hamstring Strain

Treatment





RICE
Medication
Physical therapy/rehab
Crutches
Massage

Rehabilitation



Progressive
Weight-training
Preventative


Proper stretching
Recovery Time



Mild: 2-10 days
Moderate: 10 days-6 weeks
Severe: 6-10 weeks
Adductor Strain

MOI: sudden sideways change in direction






Skating
Soccer
Track & field
Tennis
Adductor longus
Treatment:




Difficult to treat
Risk of re-injury is high
Rest, ice, anti-inflammatory meds
Stretching & strengthening exercises
Iliotibial Band Syndrome


Lateral knee pain
Pain worse after running




Especially after climbing
hills/stairs
Often not present until midway through run
Associated with “snapping
hip”
Attributed to:

Over-training





Doubling mileage
Increase in hill repeats
Running on uneven roads
Tight indoor tracks
Poor running shoes
Treatment


Address faulty pelvic
mechanics
Reduce or stop running






Cross-train
Ice
Stretch Gluteals and TFL
Self-massage outside thigh
and/or gluteals
Address faulty foot
mechanics, running shoes, or
orthotics
Return to running gradually
Quadriceps Contusion

Direct blow to thigh from helmet or knee





Limit motion
Affect gait
Severity graded by ROM at time of injury
Treatment




Football, rugby, soccer, basketball
Immediate compression, ice, NWB
Massage contraindicated
Recovery Time: 2 days to 6 months
Complication: Myositis Ossificans
Myositis Ossificans


Ossifying mass (calcium deposit) forms within the muscle
Result of recurrent trauma to quad muscle that was not
properly protected after mild injury
Signs & Symptoms



Hard, painful mass in soft
tissue
Progressive loss of knee
flexion
X-ray at four weeks
Treatment
 Heat
 Limit joint motion
 Rehab exs limit pain
 Discouraged 6months:



Passive stretching
Vigorous exercise
Calcium reabsorbtion may
take 3-6 months
Myositis Ossificans
Iliac Crest Contusion




“hip pointer”
Caused by direct blow to hip
Common in football due to improperly fitted hip pads
Signs & Symptoms:




Treatment



Extreme tenderness
Swelling
Ecchymosis
Ice, compression
Pad injured area
RTP: dictated by athlete’s pain level
Iliac Crest Contusion
Overuse Injuries

MOI: cumulative effects of very low levels of stress




Chronic muscle strains
Stress fractures
Tendonitis


Repetitive action of running
Overuse/overload fatigue within the tendon
Snapping hip

Iliopsoas tendon snapping over the head of the femur

Bursitis

CROSS-TRAINING
Stress Fractures



Pelvis: occur most often in runners & dancers
Femur: occur usually in runners
Signs/Symptoms:




Chronic, ill-defined pain over groin and thigh
Initially diagnosed with muscle strain
Symptoms do not resolve with rest & rehab
Treatment:


Rest
Non-weight-bearing endurance exercises
