PelvisMade up of ilium, pubic bone, and ischium bones; iliofemeroal (prevents hyperextension and controls external rotation and adduction), isciofemoral (prevents internal rotation and adduction), and pubofemoral (prevents abduction) ligaments; iliosoas (hip fl
Groin strainGroin= iliosoas, rectus femoris, and adductor group Running, jumping or twisting with external rotation Sudden twinge during activity RICE and NSAIDS
Dislocated hipTraumatic force directed along long axis of femur Hip is flexed, adducted, and internally rotated, head of femur is posterior to acetabulum Hospital, immobilization, and crutches Avascular necrosis= complication- loss of blood supply
Legg-Calve-Perthes DiseaseAvascular necrosis of femoral head comon in children 4-10 Pain in groin, limping, decreased ROM Bed rest, special brace to avoid weight bearing
