Abstract
Until recently our understanding of hip pain in young adults has been limited. A minority of such patients had established osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis, avascular necrosis, fractures, or childhood hip disease, but the majority had no specific diagnosis. In the last few years there has been increasing recognition of the syndrome of FAI, which seems to account for a large proportion of the previously undiagnosed cases of hip pain in young adults [1,2]. Despite an overwhelming focus on surgery for FAI and only limited attention to nonoperative care for FAI, the optimum treatment for FAI is still not known.
