WOW!

Thanks for all the info DRU. Great explanations.

Mild tear of the secondary hip flexor muscle for Ruffin.

Great work on the visual aide.

Just wondering, of the 3 muscles pointed at in the diagram, which one is the "secondary"?

Must muscles have primary and secondary actions. The muscle shown in the pic is NOT a secondary hip flexor...its a primary.



The long muscle in the photo is the sartorious a long but weak muscle...its the only easily identifiable from this picture.....the muscle that shows the tear could be the iliacus, psoas major often called the Iliopsoas (MAJOR hip flexor) becaue of the common insertion point and action, which is, as I stated, hip flexion.

These muscles aren't usually refered to as "secondary" when it comes to hip flexion. Secondary hip flexors are Quads, adductors.

It COULD be a psoas minor but MOST people don't even have one of those.

If they are saying its a secondary muscle he obviously had an MRI and they "dumb it down" by not lisiting the actual muscle torn (which could be just a few fibers) and just calling it secondary.

To me, this is a GOOD thing because they are basically saying the muscle torn is NOT the major hip flexor and that it just assists in that action.

Without a cut-a-way photo its difficult from the pic. to tell just what muscle is in the diagram since the muscles overlap each other.

The picture gives you an idea of approx. the region but really doesn't clearly identify "secondary' hip flexors.

Yikes! I am impressed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Wow...I thought it would be rather boring with people saying "blah blah blah....when will he be back."

DR has alot going for him that we weekend athletes might not have. He NEEDS to get healthy quickly where we might let something linger for a few days/weeks. DR will get the BEST care in Peoria from DAY 1 which is critical.

He's also young and healthy which will only speed his recovery.
