What may contribute to hip pain?

Pain around the hip can involve the joint, surrounding muscles and tendons, or symptoms referred from another area. Groin, outer hip, and buttock pain can have different causes. The examination helps distinguish these patterns.

These concerns may occur together, but do not always share the same cause.

Care often used for hip pain

Dr. DeFries assesses hip movement, muscle function, walking, and the low back when relevant. Depending on your findings, care may include soft tissue therapies, appropriate joint treatment, and exercises for strength and movement control. The goals are more comfortable movement and better tolerance for everyday activity.
