Suggest Treatment For Hip Pain Despite Having Physiotherapy

Hi I m a 20 yr old college lacrosse player. Slipped in game while cutting and had instant hip pain. I have been PTing for 10 days. Today went live and when I went to cut to the left experienced sharp pain again. Forward movement and to the right is fine. No pain at rest or during PT. Only feel pain when pushin off on left side

Hi,

The location and movement of a pain give clues as to what is going on. Localized pain is a localized irritation of the structures. It could be a bruise/tear or more serious injury to the edge of the cartilage and would require a lot of rest. Or an inflamed tendon which would also require a lot of rest but is close to guaranteed to improve.

My dancing instructor has the latter but due to other issues his is extremely fragile and he has PT to support the area, increase flexibility, and is on borrowed time. MRI's would show the problem.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
