Obturator Internus and Externus

Really interesting and well presented - thank you. I discovered my obturator internus last week after walking/jogging - could hardly walk for a couple of days. It's recovering, but I have no idea how it happened, so don't know how to mitigate for the future. Any suggestions? Squats have helped.

Thank you so much for the information. I have obturator externis muscle pain on my left side. I am presently doing physiotherapy with a pelvic floor physiotherapist who works with me internally to relieve some of the pain. Is there any type of exercise I can do externally at home myself to ease the pain of the obturator externis muscle.

I have obturator internus syndrome. Reading the comments how to heal it. Im regularly Pilates, Yoga practice and it doesn’t fix the pain. 😢

Are the hip rotations affected by hip angle?

Would you comment what happens after a Hip Joint Replacement and how best training is handled

Amazing video! I’ve had a hip impingement on my left side with a pinch in the front crease of the hip. Been working on my gluts doing shallow squats and have felt/heard clicking across by sit bone. It doesn’t hurt but was wondering if it could be the ligaments around the obturator. When I point my toes out during the squat the clicking goes away. Am I doing any harm if it keeps clinching?

Outstanding, you rule.nailed it.

Excellent! I particularly appreciate all you share specifically concerning your practice with clients - what you do, how you do it and why. So glad I found you!

great great video, thank you for the info

Had total hip replacement 2016.I have a lot of pain on the inside near the groin in the bend of my leg. Had an examination for hernia not found. This sounds like what it might be. Thanks a million for your video.

could this cause pain in the bladder/pelvic pain?. And could this cause hip/foot to turn out only on one side.

Great video! Really appreciate this. What anatomy app do you use?
