not always the case.  There is NO way the ortho dr. didn't do a hip eval. at some point soon after the injury complete with orthopedic testing, but it likely was non productive.  In my line of work, I treat a ton of disc herniations.  Half the time the orthopedic evaluations and tests are also not productive and negative.  And if and until we do an MRI it won't be definitively identified.  Same with this I'm sure.  The difference is with the back issues you go with the Rx treating it as a disc problem based on that knowledge because disc problems are SO common with everyone, but with Rons scenario it's different as its so uncommon.

Again this is the last thing you're thinking in routine injury situations (and we don't know if any injury type incident  actually happened as it could have been a Bo Jackson like situation based on what I've heard of his strength); so from the get go you're not thinking this and then the ortho eval. doesn't neccessarily show anything until it progresses further.  I've been critical of the med staff up there over the years for certain things, but at this point (or if and until I hear more), I'm not on this one.
