hip
head of femur joins acetabulum of pelvis
ligaments of hip, pelvis, and thigh
iliofemoral, ischiofemoral, pubofemoral
hamstring muscles
semimembranosus, semitendinosus, bicepfemoris
action of hamstrings
knee flexion and hip extension
gluteal muscles
gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, gluteus minimus
gluteus maximus movement
hip extension, external rotation
gluteus medius & minimus movement
hip abduction, internal rotation
groin muscles
gracilis, adductor magnus, adductor longus, pectineus
goin muscle movement
adducts and internal rotation of thigh
quadriceps muscles
rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, vastus intermedius
quadriceps movement
knee extension
hip flexor muscles
rectus femoris, sartorius, iliopsoas
which muscle responsible for knee extension and hip flexion
rectus femoris
muscle that abducts hip
tensor fascia latae
IT Band
tight connective tissue, connects hip muscles to lower leg
IT Band syndrome
tight IT band pulls where tendon attaches to bone, pain in lateral knee
avulsion fractures
forceful muscle contraction pulls bone away
growth plate fractures
capital femoral epiphysis, head of femur slips off neck, pain in groin hip knee,
stress fractures
running oriented athletes, caused by repetitive stress, pounding force of lower extremity while running
femur fractures
internal bleeding, swelling, tearing of muscle tendon nerve or arteries
hip dislocations
leg often internally rotated
hip pointer
contusion to iliac crest of pelvis, caused by direct blow to side of hip/pelvis
thigh contusion
common especially in collision sports, can cause tissue tearing and extensive bleeding
develops when contusion is not managed properly, formation of bone tissue w/in muscle
myositis ossificans
disruption of blood flow to head of femur causing tissue to die head of femur collapse and become flat
legg-calve perthes disease
labral tears
clicking locking hip/groin pain
positive test: involved leg raises off the table and lower leg moves into extension
thomas test
implications: tightness in hip flexors
thomas test
positive test: athlete does not attempt to lift leg and examiner does not sense pressure from the uninvolved leg pressing down on hand
hoover's test
implications: athlete not attempting to perform test (faking the injury)
hoover’s test
positive test: pain arising from the SI joints
SI Compression and distraction test
implications: sacroiliac pathology
SI compression and distraction test
positive test: pelvis lowers on the non weight bearing side
trendelenburg's test
implications: weak gluteus medius muscles
trendelenburg’s test
positive test: pain in the SI joint or hip
faber’s test
implication: hip and SI joint pathology
faber’s test
what are they massaging?
IT band
what injury is this?
hip dislocation
what injury is this
legg-calve perthes disease
