Welcome back to the Talking Physiotherapy Podcast. In this episode we discuss managing acute and chronic hip and groin injuries in both professional sport and private settings. Connor and Lewis compare how identification, clinical assessment, testing and rehab differ based on clinical environments as well as chatting through some of the research available and the clinical approaches by experts in the field. Attached below are some of the research discussed: Doha agreement meeting on terminology and definitions in groin pain in athletes Clinical and biomechanical outcomes of rehabilitation targeting intersegmental control in athletic groin pain: prospective cohort of 205 patients The pyramidalis-anterior pubic ligament-adductor longus complex (PLAC) and its role with adductor injuries: a new anatomical concept Proximal adductor avulsions are rarely isolated but usually involve injury to the PLAC and pectineus: descriptive MRI findings in 145 athletes
