Notable cases necessary?
[edit]Is the "Notable cases" section really necessary? I find that it is a constantly changing roster with much subjectivity surrounding notability Schmloof (talk) 19:34, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- Perhaps we should keep only the most notable individuals? --Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 20:02, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- I came here with the intention of making the same point, its very long so under WP:BRD, I'm going to cut it down. G

Cause
[edit]What is the exact cause of athletic pubalgia - trauma or overuse? GregorB (talk) 16:09, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
MRI use
[edit]The section on MRI use needs better reference. I removed one to MLB.com but about.com also doesn't qualify as a proper scientific source. --Derkarts (talk) 16:53, 23 April 2017 (UTC)
Good references
[edit]Three really good references are from William C. Meyers and co-authors:

These papers treat athletic pubalgia as a diagnosis encompassing many diverse conditions (18 distinct categories of underlying injury) tied together by their anatomical location and connection to the pubic joint. I'll take what I can from these to update the article soon, but just posting these here in case anyone else wants to have a go at it. Sancho 18:20, 25 December 2012 (UTC)
Dancers
[edit]British professional dancer Neil Jones has stated that he has been living with this condition for several years, after sustaining it during a high-exertion dance manoeuvre. While, obviously, the plural of anecdote is not data, would it make sense to clarify that the injury can happen in non-sports situations? ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 09:12, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
