Frequently Asked Questions

What causes hip pain?

There can be many causes for hip pain, with the most common being immobility, instability or weakness in the lower back and pelvis.  Our providers at LifeClinic are specially trained to find the root cause of your pain and to build you a personalized plan not only to simply relieve your symptoms, but also to create a lasting change.

Bursitis, tendonitis, tumors, and osteonecrosis might cause hip pain, too. But most of the time, your hip can hurt if you’ve fractured it. Strained muscles or tendons might lead to pain, as well.

Where is hip pain felt?

Since your hip is near your lower back, getting to the root of your pain can be a challenge. However, your chiropractor or therapist might look at areas where your symptoms occur. For instance, pain in your groin or in front of your hip could come from arthritis or muscle strain.

You can feel discomfort on either side of your hip, as well. Hip muscle or tissue problems often cause this pain. Your pain might come from hip bursitis, a condition that irritates your bursa. Bursitis can also affect your hip’s iliotibial band, thus causing side hip pain.

What does hip pain feel like?

When your hip gets injured or affected by a chronic condition, it can cause stinging, shooting, or burning pain. Moreover, you might feel hip pain down your leg and within your knee.

How do I relieve hip pain?

Mild to moderate pain can benefit from simple hip pain remedies. For one, resting your hip might make your pain go away. You can also take over-the-counter pain relievers or apply ice or heat to your hip. And to keep yourself active while reducing pain, you can give your body a gentle stretch.

But if the pain persists, consulting a doctor is your best option. Your doctor might give you specific treatment for hip pain, including surgery and physical therapy. A visit to a trusted chiropractic is also a great non-intensive alternative, one that doesn’t require heavy medication.
