Hip Problems & Joint Pain
Hip Pain & Hip Conditions
Hip pain can significantly affect mobility, balance, and overall quality of life. Simple daily activities such as walking, climbing stairs, sitting for long periods, bending, or standing may become painful and difficult. The hip joint is one of the body’s major weight-bearing joints, and conditions affecting it can gradually reduce movement, flexibility, and independence.
Hip problems may develop due to arthritis, sports injuries, fractures, muscle strain, tendon inflammation, cartilage damage, or age-related wear and tear. Some patients experience gradual stiffness over time, while others may develop sudden pain after injury or excessive physical activity.
We specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of hip conditions using advanced clinical evaluation, digital imaging, physiotherapy guidance, non-surgical treatments, injections, minimally invasive arthroscopic procedures, and joint replacement solutions whenever necessary. Our goal is to relieve pain, restore movement, improve hip strength, and help patients safely return to daily activities and active lifestyles.
Common Hip Conditions We Treat
Hip Arthritis & Degenerative Joint Disease
Hip arthritis is one of the most common causes of chronic hip pain and stiffness. It occurs when the protective cartilage inside the hip joint gradually wears down, causing friction between the bones.
Common Types Include:
- ➜ Osteoarthritis
- ➜ Rheumatoid arthritis
- ➜ Post-traumatic arthritis
Patients May Experience:
- ➜ Groin or hip pain during walking
- ➜ Morning stiffness in the joint
- ➜ Difficulty climbing stairs
- ➜ Reduced hip flexibility
- ➜ Pain while standing or sitting long periods
- ➜ Limping during movement
Treatment Options:
- ➜ Physiotherapy rehabilitation
- ➜ Weight management guidance
- ➜ Pain relief medications
- ➜ Joint injections
- ➜ Hip replacement surgery (severe cases)
The aim is to reduce pain, improve mobility, and preserve long-term joint function.
