One cause of hip-joint pain is called femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). This condition is characterized by abnormal bone shapes of the ball (femoral head) or socket (acetabulum), which may be risk factors for early hip joint arthritis. One of the treatments for FAI is to re-contour the bone shape, a procedure called an osteoplasty.
