Common causes include abnormal bone growth, repetitive movements, and genetic factors. Symptoms often present as hip pain and reduced range of motion. Early diagnosis through physical exams and imaging is crucial. Understanding the types—Cam, Pincer, and Combined—and related conditions like labral tears aids in effective treatment planning. Untreated, it can lead to chronic pain and osteoarthritis. Recovery varies, involving physical therapy and, if necessary, surgery. Preventive measures include maintaining hip strength and flexibility. Seek medical advice if symptoms occur.
