HIP:

HIP JOINT: -BALL AND SOCKET JOINT -SYNOVIAL JOINT -FREELY MOVEABLE JOINT

BONES OF THE HIP: ILIUM ISCHIUM PUBIS SACRUM COCCYX FEMUR

LIGAMENTS OF THE HIP: ISCHIOFEMORA L ILIOFEMORAL PUBOFEMORAL

ACETABULUM: THE ACETABULUM IS LIKE THE LABRUM OF THE SHOULDER FIBROCARTILAGE RIM THAT KEEPS THE FEMUR IN PLACE

HIP BURSA: THERE ARE 4 BURSA IN EACH HIP THE TROCHANTERIC BURSA IS THE MOST COMMONLY INJURED

HIP MOVEMENTS: FLEXION EXTENSION ABDUCTION ADDUCTION INTERNAL ROTATION EXTERNAL ROTATION CIRCUMDUCTION

Q-ANGLE: THE Q-ANGLE IS AN ANGLE BETWEEN THE HIP AND THE KNEE AN INCREASED Q-ANGLE CAN CAUSE INJURY

Q-ANGLE: TO MEASURE Q-ANGLE YOU NEED TO KNOW 3 BONY LANDMARKS... ASIS (ANTERIOR SUPERIOR ILIAC SPINE) PATELLA TIBIAL TUBEROSITY DRAW LINE THROUGH ALL 3 AND MEASURE THE ANGLE AVERAGE MALE Q-ANGLE: 14 AVERAGE FEMALE Q-ANGLE: 17

HIP INJURIES: SPRAIN STRAIN FRACTURE DISLOCATION BURSITIS HIP POINTER MYOSITIS OSSIFICANS OSTEITIS PUBIS ANTERIOR PELVIC TILT POSTERIOR PELVIC TILT

SPRAIN: INJURY TO A LIGAMENT HIP SPRAIN WILL USUALLY OCCUR AROUND THE ACETABULUM AND FEMUR (HIP JOINT) TREATMENT: PRICE

STRAIN: INJURY TO A MUSCLE OR TENDON MOST COMMOM STRAIN IN THE HIP IS THE HIP FLEXOR TREATMENT: PRICE

FRACTURE: BROKEN BONE TO ONE OF THE BONES OF THE HIP TREATMENT: SEND TO PHYSICIAN, POSSIBLY ACTIVATE EMS

DISLOCATION/ SUBLUXATION: HIP DISLOCATION WILL OCCUR WHEN THE FEMUR SEPERATES FROM THE ACETABULUM SUBLUXATION IS WHERE IT DISLOCATES AND IMMEDIATELY RELOCATES TREATMENT: ICE, SPLINT, ACTIVATE EMS

BURSITIS: INFLAMMATION OF ONE OR MORE OF THE BURSA IN THE HIP TREATMENT: PRICE

HIP POINTER: HIP POINTER IS A BONE CONTUSION TO EITHER THE ILIAC CREST OF THE ILIUM BONE OR THE ASIS TREATMENT: PRICE

MYOSITIS OSSIFICANS: Condition which calcium is produced in the muscle after a blow/ direct hit Treatment: -see physician, protect with donut pad

OSTEITIS PUBIS: Repeated stress to the pubic symphysis from sports activity can cause inflammation of this area resulting in pain in groin region Treatment: PRICE

ANTERIOR PELVIC TILT: NOT AN INJURY ITSELF BUT CAN CAUSE OR LEAD TO MANY DIFFERENT INJURIES OF THE HIP CAUSED BECAUSE OF TIGHT AND/OR WEAK MUSCULATURE

POSTERIOR PELVIC TILT: NOT AN INJURY ITSELF BUT CAN CAUSE OR LEAD TO MANY DIFFERENT INJURIES OF THE HIP CAUSED BECAUSE OF TIGH AND/OR WEAK MUSCULATURE
