Hi there.
Thanks for the query.
The indentation pit which is seen in MRI in the femoral neck region is a normal finding your Doctor must have suspected that the ball of the femoral head is not moving freely on the space available for moment in the hip joint causing Impingement syndrome leading to tearing of the joint soft tissue capsule and labour leading to pain.
Kindly get examined by your Doctor to find out if the range of movement of your hip is decreased and painful which may support the diagnosis of Femoroacetabular Impingement.
Thanking you.

Dr. Aashish Raghu
