Your hips support your body through almost every movement, from walking and climbing stairs to bending, lifting, and getting out of a chair. When your hip hurts, even everyday activities can become uncomfortable.
\nHip pain can develop suddenly after a fall, workplace injury, or car accident. It can also appear gradually from repetitive movements, muscle strains, arthritis, or conditions affecting the hip joint and surrounding tissues. You may feel a deep ache in your groin, discomfort along the outside of your hip, or pain that extends into your thigh or buttocks.
\nAt La Cl\u00ednica SC, we help patients throughout Chicago and the surrounding suburbs understand what’s causing their hip pain and explore treatment options. Our multidisciplinary approach brings together medical evaluation, orthopedic care, pain management, and physical therapy based on each patient’s needs.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\tSchedule<\/span>\n<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n\t\t\t\t\tCommon Hip Injuries and Conditions\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t
Hip pain can involve the bones, joints, muscles, tendons, or other tissues surrounding the hip. Some conditions develop gradually, while others result from a sudden injury or impact.<\/p>\n

Understanding the underlying cause is important because different hip conditions require different approaches to treatment.<\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\t
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

1. Hip Strains<\/h3>\n

Hip strains occur when muscles or tendons surrounding the hip are overstretched or torn. They may result from heavy lifting, sudden twisting movements, sports activities, or physically demanding work.<\/p>\n

Symptoms can include tenderness, muscle weakness, stiffness, and pain when moving the affected leg. More significant strains may make walking or climbing stairs difficult.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

2. Hip Bursitis and Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome<\/h3>\n

Pain along the outside of the hip is sometimes related to irritation of the fluid-filled bursae that cushion nearby tissues or problems involving the gluteal tendons. These conditions are often grouped under greater trochanteric pain syndrome.<\/p>\n

Discomfort may become more noticeable when lying on the affected side, climbing stairs, standing for long periods, or walking.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

3.Hip Osteoarthritis<\/h3>\n

Hip osteoarthritis develops when the cartilage cushioning the hip joint gradually changes and wears down. This can cause pain, stiffness, and difficulty moving the joint comfortably.<\/p>\n

Many people notice discomfort in the groin or thigh, particularly after sitting for an extended period or during activities such as walking and climbing stairs.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

4. Hip Labral Tears<\/h3>\n

The labrum is a ring of cartilage that helps support and stabilize the hip joint. A labral tear can develop following an injury or from repetitive movements that place stress on the hip.<\/p>\n

Symptoms may include groin or hip pain, stiffness, and sensations of clicking, catching, or locking during movement. These symptoms can have other causes, so an examination is necessary.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

5. Hip Fractures<\/h3>\n

A hip fracture occurs when the upper portion of the thighbone breaks. Fractures may result from falls, significant impacts, or vehicle accidents. Older adults and people with weakened bones may be at greater risk.<\/p>\n

Hip fractures are serious injuries requiring urgent medical evaluation, and treatment frequently involves surgery followed by rehabilitation.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\tSchedule<\/span>\n<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n\t\t\t\t\tMedical Evaluation\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t
An evaluation helps determine whether hip pain is related to a muscle injury, joint condition, tendon problem, or another underlying cause.<\/p>\n

Your provider may examine how your hip moves, whether certain positions cause pain, and how comfortably you can walk or place weight on your leg.<\/p>\n

Orthopedic care may be appropriate for joint injuries, arthritis, labral problems, or other musculoskeletal conditions. Depending on your diagnosis, your provider may recommend additional imaging, activity modifications, or specialized treatment.<\/div>\n<\/div>

Pain Management<\/h3>\n

Persistent hip pain can make it difficult to walk, sleep, work, or remain active throughout the day.<\/p>\n

Pain management focuses on identifying the source of discomfort and selecting appropriate treatments. Depending on the diagnosis, options may include medication, activity modifications, or certain medical procedures, such as injections when clinically appropriate.<\/p>\n

Your provider will consider your symptoms, medical history, and response to previous treatments before recommending an approach.<\/p>\n

Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation<\/h3>\n

Physical therapy may help improve hip movement, muscle strength, balance, and everyday function.<\/p>\n

Depending on your condition, rehabilitation may include:<\/p>\n
