Overview
Understanding Your Condition
Hip pain is a common complaint affecting people of all ages. The hip is a ball-and-socket joint allowing a wide range of motion, and pain can significantly impact mobility and quality of life. It can originate from the joint itself or from surrounding muscles, ligaments, and tendons.
Causes & Types

- Hip fractures, common in older adults due to falls.
- Dislocations from trauma.
- Labral tears in the cartilage rim of the socket.
- Bursitis: inflammation of the cushioning bursae.
- Tendinitis: inflammation of tendons around the joint.
- Muscle or tendon strain from overuse or activity.
- Hip impingement (FAI): bone spurs limiting movement.
- Referred pain from the lower back or knees.
