When a hip labral tear needs specialist assessment
Persistent hip or groin pain, especially with clicking, locking or a catching sensation, warrants specialist assessment when rest and early rehabilitation do not help or walking, sitting and exercise start to suffer. Severe sudden pain, a hot or swollen hip, fever, deformity or inability to bear weight need urgent review.Persistent hip or groin pain, especially with clicking, locking or a catching sensation, warrants specialist assessment when rest and early rehabilitation do not help or walking, sitting and exercise start to suffer.
