Hip pain can arise from different structures and conditions, and symptoms may also come from the back or nearby areas. An assessment helps guide management rather than relying on the location of pain alone.
What can contribute to hip pain?
Possible causes include muscle or tendon problems, joint conditions, referred pain and injuries. Age, activity, medical history and symptom pattern all inform the assessment.
How physiotherapy may help
Depending on the findings, a plan may include education, progressive strengthening, movement modification and a graded return to relevant activities. The right program is specific to your diagnosis, capacity and preferences.
When to seek urgent medical care
Get urgent medical help after a significant injury, if you cannot bear weight, if a joint becomes hot and swollen with fever, or if pain is severe or rapidly worsening. Seek medical review for persistent symptoms.
