Hip Pain Therapy & Treatment Coventry, Warwickshire

Hip Pain emanating from the hip joint may not only be felt in the area of the hip joint but also nearby. In contrast the pain in the area of the hip joint may result from a problem in another area such as low back or a pelvis. This is sometimes known as referred pain

The Causes of Pain in the Hip Area include:

• Osteoarthritis: This may be felt in the front of the thigh as well as in the area of
  The hip joint usually getting worse on weight bearing
• Fracture: This is more common in older people, particularly in those with Osteoporosis.
• Aseptic Necrosis: This results from a defective blood supply to the hip. It is more common with long term corticosteroid therapy for a previous hip injury or sickle cell anemia. The type of aseptic necrosis that occurs in children is called Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease (or just Perthes Disease).
• Trochanteric bursitis: Characteristically, pain from this condition occurs on getting up from a chair and is usually located at the side of the hip joint.
• Tendinitis: inflammation of a tendon of one of the muscles adjacent to the hip joint
• Strain one of the muscles adjacent to the hip joint
• Sprain of a ligament one of the muscles adjacent to the hip joint
• Referred pain (e.g., sciatica pain from a lower back problem)
• Infection.

Treatment or management of pain in the hip area depends of the cause but can include:

• Limited activities that make the pain worse
• Pain relief medication (See Cold Laser Therapy Section under conditions treated)
• Sleep on the good side with a pillow between the knees
• Appropriate exercises as the pain improves
• Immediate medical attention if a hip fracture is suspected and you can’t move the hip or can’t stand on the leg.
