ABOUT THIS VIDEO
Is surgery for FAI better than physical therapy? Does physical therapy or surgery work better fix hip impingement? Papers like this 2020 meta analysis claim that surgery works better for hip pain sufferers, but when you dig deeper into the literature, the truth becomes a lot more clear. A web of bias and financial incentives skew orthopedic research on FAI to make surgery look far better than it actually is.
