We take a personalized approach to care, addressing not only the symptoms but also the underlying causes of your hip issues to promote long-term healing and prevent recurrence.
1. Hip Flexor Strain
The hip flexor muscles are located at the front of the hip and are responsible for lifting the thigh towards the torso. Strains can occur due to overuse, sudden movements, or poor flexibility, resulting in pain, stiffness, and difficulty with activities like walking, climbing stairs, or standing up from a seated position.
2. Hip Bursitis
Bursae are small, fluid-filled sacs that cushion the hip joint and reduce friction between tissues. Inflammation of these bursae can occur due to repetitive stress, trauma, or underlying conditions, leading to pain, swelling, and tenderness in the hip area, especially with prolonged sitting or walking.
3. Hip Labral Tear
The labrum is a ring of cartilage that lines the hip socket, providing stability and cushioning to the joint. Tears can occur due to trauma, structural abnormalities, or repetitive motions, causing pain, clicking or locking sensations in the hip, and decreased range of motion.
4. Hip Osteoarthritis
Hip osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that occurs when the cartilage in the hip joint wears down over time, leading to pain, stiffness, swelling, and decreased range of motion. It can result from aging, previous injuries, obesity, or genetic factors.
5. Hip Impingement (Femoroacetabular Impingement)
This condition occurs when there is abnormal contact between the ball and socket of the hip joint, causing pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion, particularly with activities like squatting, pivoting, or sitting for prolonged periods.
Whether you’re recovering from a recent hip injury or managing a chronic condition, our goal is to help you alleviate pain, improve mobility, and regain function in your hip. Take the first step towards healthier hips by scheduling a consultation with us today.
