Thank you for the great question. They are actually different. The hip flexor is a muscle injury while the labrum is a cartilage injury. You can read more about the different hip injuries here http://gaortho.com/hip-injuries.
Did you have an injury or someone you know?
Usually an MRI can tell the difference although both are painful.
