Hip pain is a common complaint that can be caused by a wide variety of problems and results in various courses of treatment.
The hip joint is one of the large joints of the body. It is a ball and socket joint, surrounded by many muscles and tendons gliding around it.
The hip joint moves forward and backwards as well as rotates when sitting and changing directions.
Hip pain can be both temporary or chronic with symptoms including:
- Limping,
- Loss of motion
- Joint pain
- Groin pain
- Swelling
- Tenderness
- Pressure Sensitivity
Many types of hip problems can be diagnosed with a physical examination to determine the cause.
