Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Eval by Ortho Hip MD: If your sharp pain persists for greater than 10-14 days, you should be evaluated by a hip injury specialist, such as an orthopaedic surgeon or a physician who treats hip injuries. You may have injured the cartilage or labrum that make up the hip joint lining. Hyperflexion (knee toward chest) combined with internal rotation (ankle rotated outward) with body sitting flat on back will provoke pain if.
