In college, Itamar injured his back swimming. He loved playing sports, but the pain became so bad he was spending most of his time in bed. By the end of the semester, Itamar realized he wouldn’t be able to continue his studies, so he came home to New York to get treatment at a local facility. When none of the recommendations to alleviate his pain worked, he decided to consult with the physiatrists at HSS.
During his first appointment, the physiatrist asked about his hips as opposed to every other specialist who only asked him about his back. Later that day, radiology confirmed a diagnosis of hip impingement as being the cause of his pain. Ultimately, an accurate diagnosis ensured Itamar received effective treatments that would allow him to return to college and sports: [ Ссылка ]
