In this episode of Positive Reaction, Dr. Edwin Serrano offers a light diagnosis to Dr. Danielle Aguilar on her hip impingement. Hip impingement is when the muscles fold into each other and create stiffness and pain. Dr. Edwin provides a number of exercises that are meant to help alleviate the muscle’s entanglement and points out what not to do when in this situation.
