Hip problems have increased especially among young ice hockey goalkeepers and those using the butterfly technique. Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a common cause of the symptoms. Although hip impingement may also be symptomless, it may later predispose to joint damages, especially in case of goalkeepers who are loading their hip. Diagnosis of the impingement is important in order to lessen any harmful effects. Magnetic resonance imaging is the most important investigation in addition to the elucidation of patient history and clinical condition. Conservative treatment includes changing the exercise, and making use of exercises supporting the hip. If secondary joint damages have already developed, surgical treatment is required.
