Hip Pain Q & A

What causes hip pain?

Hip pain can occur as a result of an injury, arthritis, or an underlying medical problem such as osteoporosis. Pinpointing the exact source of your pain and its origin can help the team at Pain Medicine Group develop an effective treatment strategy.

Common causes of hip pain include:

Arthritis
Bursitis or tendonitis
Dislocation or fracture
Pinched nerve
Osteoporosis or osteomyelitis

Hip pain may also be caused by a medical condition that affects a different part of your body, such as a low back injury. Tight muscles in the hips and buttocks may also lead to hip pain.

How is hip pain diagnosed?

To identify the cause of your hip pain, your Pain Medicine Group provider conducts a thorough examination to find the location of your pain. Additional testing, such as an MRI or bone scan, may be needed to provide more objective information about the cause of your hip pain.

What is bursitis?

Bursitis is an inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs that cushion your bones and joints. Repetitive motions that put added pressure on the sacs are the most common cause of bursitis. Bursitis can occur in many parts of your body, but it’s common in the hips, especially among runners.
