W. Kelton Vasileff, MD: Hip impingement is a condition primarily related to how your bones develop typically during adolescence. Some patients, they develop in a way that the socket can be a little bit too deep or oriented in such a way that it can create some pinching in the joint. Also, what we commonly see as we call a cam deformity, which is a flattening of the ball in between the ephemeral head and neck area, which creates impingement throughout range of motion in the hip joint. When that impingement occurs, it can cause damage to the cartilage and the labrum in the hip joint, and that causes pain deep in the joint as well.
