The Sports Hernia

Overview

The sports hernia has garnered a lot of attention recently. Many high profile athletes have been diagnosed with a sports hernia, and yet it’s hard to remember anyone having this diagnosis ten years ago. So what is a sports hernia?
A sports hernia is somewhat mislabeled, as there is no real hernia (or bulge through muscle tissue). Some doctors prefer to call a sports hernia “athletic pubalgia,” which refers to pain in the pubis (front pelvic) bone caused by athletics. There is no single consensus among doctors as to what causes a sports hernia. However, there seems to be general agreement that sports hernias result from overuse. With the year-round conditioning that athletes do today, this may account for why it is an increasingly common injury.
