Where in Illinois?: This is a problem which may need hip arthroscopic for treatment. This is usually performed by orthopaedic surgeons who specialize is sports medicine. Check out the american academy of orthopaedic surgery web site @ www. Aaos.Org. Look for fellowship trained sports medicine surgeons in your area.
