Unless you have an femoroacetabular impingement in which case its damaging, and could potentially lead to a labral tear which then destroys your liquid seal in the joint, increasing the chance of osteoarthritis. A condition a big portion of the population has, but never notices because it's not a problem with their usage pattern. I'm starting to get increasingly annoyed by these general health advisories that are revised every couple of years, when people realize that once it's applied to the wrong part of the population it does more harm than good.

I think it's fair that if you have a condition, that you know what your limitations are. You won't bake apple pie when you're allergic to apples from the daily newspaper menu.

  The post you're replying to says "A condition a big portion of the population has, but never notices", so the relevant people won't know they have it or know any such limitations.

    And if you look it up, it's an incidence of 0,44% of the general population. Is that a big portion / a good example?

      That actual number is expected to be a lot higher. The number you're talking about is people that had issues and were diagnosed with it, the associated ICD9 is usually what is used in those statistics. Not too mention a significant number of normal doctors and older orthopedic surgeons never test for it, nor know how to test even though the test itself is very simple. Basically, a lot of intense sports, especially contact sports trigger the pain associated with it. But if you don't do those you'll never have symptoms, which is why the medical decision is mostly divided into two camps. One of them thinks it's a genetic condition that always needs to be corrected or addressed and the other believes that most of people have it without ever exhibiting symptoms because, as I said earlier, their usage pattern never triggers any symptom.

        So, only 0,44 % is correct, no? The others don't notice anything, so that's not "a big portion" at all. If it was a high % they would be tested by default. Eg. Like the heart is tested when you do sports ( eg. Soccer) on a competitive level. People who suddenly train intense are always suggested to see a doctor if it's not too sudden and to have a check-up. The responsibility is to the person who is training intensely, not the one who is giving the exercises in a certain niche.

Sharing information is fine, but I don't see any reason to complain and get annoyed. Is there any medical advice that is universally applicable? Should we all get annoyed at all medical advice and health education? On the subject of what position we should take all day while working. Someone says sit in a chair, but some conditions are aggrivated by long periods of sitting, such as those who have a femoroacetabular impingement. Someone else says stand, that hurts some people's backs. Someone says walk, not everyone can walk though, so now I'm annoyed too. Someone says lay down, but not everyone has a fancy lay down desk setup, I'm triggered. Perhaps more vague "check with your doctor" disclaimers are the solution?
