Understanding Hip Pain And Its Impact
Hip pain can stem from various causes, affecting individuals across different age groups and lifestyles. Whether it’s a sharp discomfort during movement or a persistent ache, understanding the underlying factors is crucial for effective treatment.
At Advancing Movement with Physical Therapy (AMPT) in Houston, we take pride in delivering expert, individualized care to patients seeking real answers and lasting relief from hip pain.
Common Causes of Hip Pain
- Muscle strains and tendonitis — Overuse or sudden movements can lead to inflammation in the muscles and tendons surrounding the hip.
- Hip bursitis — Inflammation of the bursae, fluid-filled sacs that cushion the hip joint, often results from repetitive activities.
- Osteoarthritis — Degeneration of joint cartilage can cause stiffness and pain, commonly affecting older adults.
- Labral tears — Damage to the cartilage rim of the hip socket can lead to joint instability and discomfort.
- Referred pain — Issues in the lower back or spine can manifest as pain in the hip region.
- Perimenopausal changes — Hormonal shifts can contribute to joint discomfort, especially in the hips.
- Sudden pain without injury — Can signal issues like inflammation, stress fractures or referred pain from other areas.
Whether you’re experiencing pain in the left hip area or struggling with lower back and hip pain, our team is trained to evaluate and treat the full scope of contributing factors.
