Easier said than done, or is it?.
What if I told you there is now a simplified flow chart approach to hip differential diagnosis which makes both manual treatment and specific exercise prescription clear and logical. Would it be worth your while to understand a little more? Well in this weeks Blog I provide you with the visual answers to understand the “Hip Differential Diagnosis Flow Chart” and a case study that puts it into practice with videos, as a picture tells a thousand words!
How much were we really taught about differential diagnosis and treatment of the hip in Undergraduate courses? Not very much at all, but via advances in hip imaging, arthroscopic surgery as well as muscle and tendon research, our knowledge about how the hip should be assessed and rehabilitated has exploded in the past 5 years.
During my Sports Physiotherapy Specialist preparations, it became clear that there are well in excess of 50 hip tests that are recommended for effective differential diagnosis of the hip as pathology is so widely varied. Authorities on the hip agree that differential diagnosis is the key and must be considered and addressed to optimise performance, but so often a combination of presenting signs and symptoms leaves the health professional confused and frustrated, even if you have remembered all of those 50+ tests.
The trick to understanding the hip lies in using a visual flow chart that divides presenting hip pathologies into 5 different categories and understand that more than 1 issue can be present and muddy the water. Using the flow chart approach to hip diagnosis will keep you on track to seeing the whole hip picture clearly.
The 5 categories that all assessment strategies from the beginning should aim to deferentially diagnose are:
Once the presenting issues are identified and demystified, a treatment and exercise program can be designed with an evidence based rehab strategy. The case study link using Powerpoint and video shows part of an assessment protocol differentiating between anterior hip stiffness and anterior hip instability.

We have all had those patients that keep you awake at night thinking: why does their hip or pelvic pain keep flaring with Pilates and hip strengthening exercises that you know work with other clients? I know the term “psychological issues” is the easy answer, but make sure you don’t throw the baby out with the bath water, by ignoring local hip structures that may create a cascade of pain responses, cortical motor control inhibition and emotion.
I spend many of my clinical hours seeing complex hip pain clients referred by Orthopaedic/Sports Specialists, Physio colleagues and insurance companies asking for a multifaceted rehab strategy. Obviously psychological strategies must always be considered and addressed but differential diagnosis of often a combination of presenting
musculo-skeletal issues is also key! Once the presenting issues are identified and demystified, a treatment and exercise program can be designed with an evidence based rehab strategy.
All the knowledge I have gathered and developed regarding hip-related issues as part of my Sports Physio Specialisation qualifications, I have put together in a comprehensive but easy-to-follow format in the Hip Rehab Exercise Grid which I offer to you totally free Click here to access.
