Longstanding hip and groin pain (LHGP) is a common and debilitating problem in young to middle aged individuals. These patients often get referred to orthopedic departments. Consensus statements on the management of these patients commonly recommend a physical therapist-led intervention as the first line intervention. However, the optimal content and delivery of this intervention is currently unknown. In this study we will compare the effectiveness of usual care (unstructured physical therapist-led intervention) to a semi-structured, progressive individualized physical therapist-led intervention on hip-related quality of life in people with longstanding hip and groin pain referred to an orthopedic department.
