Hip Pain Treatment in West Delhi

Hip Pain Overview

The hip is a ball-and-socket joint, wherein the femoral head, also known as the ball, fits into the socket (acetabulum) of the pelvis to help in a wide range of motion while supporting considerable weight.

Hip pain may result from issues in the joint (cartilage damage or arthritis), the surrounding tissues (muscles, ligaments, tendons), or referred pain arising from an injury in the spine. Depending on the actual cause, the pain may be felt in the groin, thigh, buttocks, or outer hip.

Hip pain may be:-

• Acute: Sudden, in most cases due to injury or trauma.
• Chronic: Longstanding, typically due to degenerative conditions or longstanding dysfunction.

Causes of Hip Pain

Hip pain can arise from numerous causes:-

• Osteoarthritis: Wear and tear of cartilage leading to stiffness and pain.
• Rheumatoid Arthritis: Autoimmune inflammation damaging hip joints.
• Hip Bursitis: Inflammation of fluid-filled sacs cushioning the joint.
• Labral Tear: Injury of the cartilage ring causing pain and instability.
• Hip Fractures: Common in older people due to osteoporosis or falls.
• Tendonitis: Inflammation due to excessive use of tendons around the hip.
• Muscle Strain: Due to sports, heavy lifting, or sudden movement.
• Avascular Necrosis: Bone tissue death due to poor blood supply.
• Referred Pain: Spine or sacroiliac joint dysfunctions.
• Lifestyle: Obesity, sedentary lifestyle, and bad posture augment risk parameters.

Symptoms of Hip Pain

• Pain in the groin or discomfort radiating to the thigh or buttocks.
• Stiffness, especially after prolonged periods of rest.
• Clicking, grinding, or locking sensation within the hip joint.
• Limited motion—difficulty bending or rotating the hip.
• Swelling and tenderness around the joint.
• Pain while walking, climbing stairs, or from seated to standing.
• Instability or feeling like the hip is going to "give."

• Clinical examination—showing posture, gait, and hip mobility.
• X-ray—showing arthritis, fracture, or joint misalignment.
• MRI scans—showing soft tissue pathologies such as labral tears or tendon injuries.
• Ultrasound—showing bursitis or fluid accumulation.
• Blood tests—showing infection or autoimmune conditions.
• Diagnostic injections—showing the precise source of the pain.
