Patients should choose appropriate exercise in the process of exercise, do not carry out too intense exercise, and do not carry out antagonistic exercise. These common sports mainly include playing football, basketball and so on. These sports have a great possibility of hitting the patient’s hip joint, resulting in serious consequences. In addition, do not engage in activities that will exceed the range of hip flexion and extension, such as hurdles, straight legs, etc.
