Hip pain

Hip pain can impact basic activities like walking, climbing stairs, or getting out of a chair or car. It may be caused by issues within the hip joint, surrounding muscles and tendons, or even referred from the lower back. In active individuals, hip pain often results from overuse, muscle imbalances, or restricted movement. In older adults, joint degeneration and arthritis are more common causes.

Common causes:

• Hip impingement or labral tear
• Muscle strain or tendon overuse
• Osteoarthritis or joint degeneration
• Bursitis or inflammation
• Referred pain from the spine or pelvis
