What Are Reasons People Most Often Suffer Hip Pain?
Though hip pain can often be felt directly in your hip, pain in your groin, thigh or knee can also be a symptom of hip injury, degeneration or pain. The common causes of hip pain include:
Traumatic accident
Accidents may include motor vehicle accidents, slips and falls and workplace accidents.
Sports-related injuries
Such injuries often include: impact injuries, degenerative injuries, and wear and tear.
Degenerative Conditions
Pain can be related to disease or infection, including arthritis.
Overexertion
Pain can result from walking, squatting and bending.
Structural issues
Examples include hip displaysia or labral tears.
What Types of Hip Pain Do We Treat?
Hip pain can take many different forms, including:
Osteoarthritis
Bursitis
Bursitis is a discomfort on the side of your hip, usually greater when you’ve been engaged in repetitive motion. Often the result of an old injury, bursitis can also make your hips tender to the touch.
Hip impingement
Hip impingement is usually felt in the groin or outer hip, particularly when you are squatting or twisting your hips
Tears
Spondylitis
Spondylitis is a type of systemic arthritis characterized by pain in the lower back, buttocks and hip that radiates to your knees and even your ankles
Connective or Soft-tissue Injury
Connective or soft-tissue injury includes muscle pain, tendonitis or sprained/strained ligaments.
What Can Pain Management Specialists of New York Do to Alleviate Your Pain?
When treating patients with hip pain, we start with a comprehensive review of your medical history, as well as a thorough medical exam, so that we can pinpoint the source of your pain. Though we don’t believe that medication is an effective long-term solution to chronic pain, we can prescribe painkillers or anti-inflammatories to provide short-term relief. We also understand the ways that physical therapy and chiropractic care can help reduce pain and will often recommend those forms of treatment.
