Femoral acetabular impingement (FAI) causes early hip pain and joint damage—learn how to spot, diagnose, and treat CAM and pincer lesions. This clear, practical video explains what FAI is, who’s at risk, and the hallmark symptoms (groin pain, the “C-sign,” pain with flexion/internal rotation, clicking or locking). You’ll learn the pathophysiology behind CAM, pincer, and mixed morphologies, how repetitive microtrauma leads to labral tears and cartilage damage, and which exams and imaging—FABER/FADIR tests, AP and lateral x-rays, MRI/MR arthrogram, and CT—are used to confirm diagnosis and plan care. Discover conservative strategies including activity modification, targeted physiotherapy, NSAIDs, and diagnostic/therapeutic intra-articular injections, plus when hip arthroscopy with femoral osteoplasty, acetabular rim trimming, and labral repair becomes the best option. The video emphasizes early identification to preserve joint health and reduce the risk of early osteoarthritis, highlights differential diagnoses to consider, and covers preoperative imaging for surgical planning. Ideal for clinicians, athletes, and active adults seeking evidence-based guidance on symptoms, imaging, and treatment pathways. Watch to understand the benefits of timely intervention, practical rehab tips, and which patients are most likely to benefit from surgery—take control of hip pain and protect long-term function with informed decisions and early care.
