Can you basically give us a, a quick definition on what a hip impingement is and what's going on there?

Well, I think that term gets thrown around a lot, and there, there's a lot of people that might define a hip impingement differently.

Um, if we're actually getting some of the, I mean, if we call it ischiofemoral impingement there with, uh, I believe, it's the quadratus femoris, um, muscle is often kind of impinged there against the ischium, which is your sit bone.

Um, that is actually like a soft tissue impingement where something's getting kinda stuck.

But we also get what we call femoroacetabular impingement with this FFAI, and there's some question in the literature whether it really exists.

But there are some bony, I guess, acquired malformations there in the hip where it's not really going to respond to...

It, it can respond to PT, but we're not gonna fix the issue.

[laughs] I hate that feeling.
