Snapping hip syndrome (also referred to as coxa saltans iliopsoas tendinitis or dancer’s hip) is a medical condition characterized by a snapping sensation felt when the hip is flexed and extended. This may be accompanied by an audible snapping or popping noise and pain or discomfort. Pain often decreases with rest and diminished activity. Snapping hip syndrome is classified by location of the snapping either extra-articular or intra-articular.
