Pelvic - Hip Injury Advice and Information• Your hip and pelvis area must handle constant and demanding workloads. This is true not only when you are playing sports, but also while doing daily tasks. When you get injured, healing is a long and tough process, and recovery calls for a lot of patience.

The pubic symphysis is actually a disc. It is a fibrocartilaginous disc that, like any other disc in the body, can be disrupted. The pubic symphysis is also strengthened by the pubic arcuate ligament and superior pubic ligament. The sacroiliac joint also has extremely strong ligamentous attachments.

Stress fractures and soft-tissue injuries occur in all age-groups, often because of excessive mechanical stress without adequate recovery periods. A systematic approach to evaluation and treatment--combined with knowledge of indications for surgical referral, training principles, and shoe-wear patterns--allows the physician to individualize the athlete's rehabilitation and return to running, and to help the athlete prevent re-injury of the hip or pelvis.....Click here, for more information.
