Hip Pain and Labral Tears
If you are experiencing pain in the front of your hip along with clicking, locking or catching of your hip joint you may have labral damage. Labral tears can occur from an injury such as a twist or slip, or damage can occur from repetitive stresses. Over time this repetitive impingement of the hip joint can cause the labrum to tear and damage to the labrum if not managed properly may lead to early degenerative arthritis.
