What causes Hip Pain?

Causes

  • Inflamed tendons (tendonitis), usually caused by too much activity or exercise
  • Arthritis, including osteoarthritis from age-related wearing down of the cartilage, trauma or fracture to a joint, infectious arthritis due to an injection in the joint, and rheumatoid arthritis from the body’s immune system attacking the joints
  • Trochanteric bursitis, when the bursa near the hip joint becomes inflamed, caused by hip injury, overuse of the joints, or posture problems
  • Snapping hip syndrome, usually seen in dancers or athletes, characterized by a snapping sound or feeling in the hip
  • Osteonecrosis or avascular necrosis, which occurs when blood supply no longer reaches the hip and hip joint, leading to bone loss and even bone death

How is Hip Pain treated in St. Petersburg?

Hip Pain FAQ

In our office, we diagnose hip pain and problems by performing a thorough history, where various questions will be asked, including whether the pain is worse during the day or at night, whether it affects your walking, and when your symptoms appeared. After a thorough history, an evaluation will be performed including watching how you walk and checking the motion of the hip joint itself. We will also look into imaging including X-rays or MRIs to help determine what is occurring in the hip joint.
