What Are The symptoms of Hip Pain?
The symptoms of hip pain can vary widely depending on the cause and may include discomfort in the groin, thigh, or buttock area. This pain can range from a dull ache to sharp, stabbing sensations and may worsen with activities such as walking, running, or sitting for extended periods. In some cases, hip pain may be accompanied by swelling, reduced range of motion, and a noticeable limp.
Stiffness and a restricted range of motion are common symptoms of hip pain. Individuals may find it difficult to perform everyday activities that involve bending at the hip, such as putting on socks and shoes, getting in and out of cars, or climbing stairs. This stiffness can also make it challenging to perform more complex movements, like squatting or rotating the leg outward or inward.
Hip pain can often worsen at night, making it difficult to find a comfortable sleeping position. This nocturnal pain can disrupt sleep, leading to fatigue and further impacting daily activities. Pain may intensify when lying on the affected hip or when lying flat on the back, as the pressure on the hip joint increases.
If your hip pain isn’t treated effectively by a qualified clinician, muscle weakness in the hip and surrounding areas can occur. This weakness can result from disuse due to pain or from conditions like tendinitis or bursitis, which directly affect the muscles and tendons. Reduced muscle strength can further limit mobility and increase the risk of falls and other injuries.

What Is Our Approach to hip pain with hip Pain pT?
If you’re suffering from hip pain, you’ve probably tried many things to reduce your pain, such as injections, pain medicine, and may even have contemplated surgery. You’ve probably seen many healthcare providers that have given you different answers as to why your hip hurts but none of them have offered you the solutions you desperately want.
Pain medication, resting, and hoping it will go away on its own rarely will provide the relief you’re looking for. We know how much hip pain can impact your daily life, it can dissuade you from going on that family vacation, going to work, golfing, hunting, and fishing. We know that you’re probably feeling distressed, you might feel defeated or frustrated, but there are many things we can do to reduce your pain naturally and get you back to a high-quality life.
This is why at MORGAiN Physical Therapy, we take a holistic approach to your hip pain. We don’t just focus on the area where it hurts but, thanks to our detailed initial assessment, we conduct a whole-body scan to identify any other areas of concern where you might feel slight niggles or a lower level of discomfort than your hip but might become serious concerns with time. Depending on the results of this scan, we will create a tailored treatment plan specific to your condition and goals.
We will first seek to get you out of pain, using specialized pain management techniques that include using modalities such as heat, ice, shockwave, or ultrasound to reduce pain and inflammation. Heat can help relax tight muscles, while ice can reduce swelling. Manual therapy, including joint mobilizations and soft tissue massage, is also used to relieve pain, improve circulation, and enhance joint mobility.
We also place huge importance on education and self-management for a patient’s long-term success. We provide information about the condition, the importance of adhering to the treatment plan, and strategies for managing pain at home. Regular reassessment allows us to monitor your progress and adjust the treatment plan as needed to ensure optimal outcomes.
