Common Causes and Management of Lateral Hip Pain

Lateral hip pain, or Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome (GTPS), is extremely prevalent though still remains a condition that is poorly understood. There exists a poor understanding amongst many therapists of the varied pathologies that contribute to this condition, with the 'bursitis' label commonly allocated though rarely the sole cause of the patient's pain and reported symptoms. This online activity is designed to provide an overview of common causes of lateral hip pain, discussing relevant anatomy and pathophysiology, typical patient presentation and common assessments that may be employed, and current conservative (including exercise) and surgical management strategies employed to deal with this patient cohort.

This is a recording of an ESSA webinar presented on 22 April 2021.
