584: Healing Your Hips with Mehmet Gem

Hip pain ranges from minor pinching felt during squats to excruciating pain that causes you to limp or even need the support of a cane. Like all joint injuries, the process of diagnosing and treating a hip injury is often long and circuitous. Do you need surgery? Physical therapy? Will the pain ever go away? In this week’s podcast, you’ll meet a physiotherapist who focuses specifically on hips.

Listen and learn:

• What femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is and what it might mean for you
• Why you should forget quick fixes and focus on a six months plus healing journey
• Realistic options for post-hip replacement exercise and sport
• Why labrum tears are so common in the general population and are usually asymptomatic
