In this episode with Dr Enda King, we dive into assessment and management of the athletic hip. We discuss the role and evidence behind pain provocation tests in the hip/groin and the role of imaging in this population. We then delve into the imbalance of load and biomechanics in hip injury and cover the importance of individualised, conservative management of hip pain. Finally we cover the importance of addressing deficits in the athlete above and below the hip joint in rehabilitation.
Dr Enda King is currently the head of Elite Performance and Development in Aspetar, Doha Qatar and travels internationally to work with athletes and professional clubs. His greatest area of expertise is within hip and groin related injury as well as knee/ACL rehabilitation.
