What are the symptoms of iliopsoas tendonitis? Iliopsoas tendonitis is characterized by pain and clicking or snapping in the groin or front of the hip. Because the iliopsoas muscle acts as a hip flexor, symptoms are often worse when bending the hip, especially against resistance. Unlike the hip joint, the iliopsoas tendon is fairly close to the skin, so the front of the hip area or groin may also be tender to the touch.
âº A spurt is also a sudden and brief period of increased activity, effort, or speed: a childâs growth spurt Penn State ended the game with a 10â4 spurt (= period of scoring).
Spurt is also a noun: A spurt of water erupted from the hole in the water balloon before she had a chance to throw it. Though a jet of liquid is usually what spurts, the word is also used for quick bursts of speed, like a race car that spurts forward suddenly, winning at the last second. The origin of spurt isn't certain, but it may be related to the German spÃ¼rzen, to spit and sprÃ¼tzen, to squirt.
