Spencer Dungey, Athletic Therapist, Mount Albert, ON

Like Many Other Athletes, I Was Introduced To Athletic Therapy After An Injury. In The Middle Of A Soccer Game I Blocked A Shot, Shattering My Ankle, And The Rest Is History. But It Wasn’T Until I Realized Athletic Therapists Are The Ones You See Assessing The Pros On The Field Mid-Game That I Knew I Wanted To Study It Myself. Today, I Am That Practitioner On The Field. I’Ve Had The Opportunity To Work With Several Professional Teams, From The Cfl To Toronto Fc. I Was Even Courtside Working With The Toronto Raptors When We Won The Championship. But, Along The Way, I Couldn’T Help But Wonder What The Everyday Athlete Might Be Capable Of If They Had Access To The Same Kind Of Care The Pros Did. I Believe Everyone Is An Athlete In Their Own Regard – From Mothers Carrying Their Kids, To Warehouse Workers Who Lift Heavy Boxes All Day. These Are All Athletic Movements. It’S My Mission To Take The Level Of Care The Pros Do And Make It Accessible For The Everyday Athlete. To Provide The Kind Of Resources You Need

Hip flexor strains can vary in severity, ranging from mild stretches or micro-tears to partial or complete muscle tears. Symptoms of a hip flexor strain may include pain and tenderness in the front of the hip or upper thigh, pain or difficulty with hip movement or walking, swelling or bruising, and muscle weakness.

Treatment for a hip flexor strain typically involves the RICE method: Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. Resting the injured hip and avoiding activities that exacerbate the pain is important for healing. Applying ice packs to the area can help reduce pain and inflammation. Compression with an elastic bandage and elevating the leg when possible can also aid in reducing swelling.

In some cases, physical therapy exercises and stretching may be recommended to improve flexibility, strength, and promote healing. Severe strains may require medical intervention, such as medications or even surgery.

If you suspect you have a hip flexor strain, it's advisable to consult with a healthcare professional, such as a doctor or physical therapist, for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.
