Hip Pain
Introduction
According to the CDC, approximately 1 in 10 adults are dealing with hip pain at any given time. However, because most hip pain in America goes untreated by medical professionals, that number could be much larger. The hip, a ball-and-socket joint that ranks as one of the body’s largest, sustains a great deal of wear and tear throughout the day. Because it’s designed to move back and forth while supporting your body, a healthy hip can withstand a large amount of usage. Because of its constant usage in daily life, wear and tear injuries are common. Some common types of hip pain come from the joint anatomy, bursa, tendons, nerves, and muscles. Our team is highly trained in the diagnosis, treatment, and caring for such pains. We will explain to you where exactly the pain is coming from, and exactly how we plan to treat it, so that you can get back to living pain-free.
Causes of Hip Pain
Hip pain is increasingly more common with increasing age. The development of osteoarthritis, and everyday wear and tear on the joint can result in significant pain. Some other causes of hip pain include lumbar radiculopathy, sciatica, meralgia paresthetica, tendonitis or bursitis. These injuries can be the result of trauma, overuse, repetitive motions, or the wear and tear of aging. No matter the pain, our experienced BACAS team will diagnose and treat your pain effectively.
