Hip Pain
Hip pain is the general term used for a pain or discomfort that is felt in or around the patient’s hip joint.
Unfortunately hip pain is not always felt locally at the hip joint, it may be felt in the groin, thigh or buttocks region, making it particularly difficult to diagnose. Although modern technology has greatly assisted doctors and physical therapists with the diagnostic process over the past decade, it can still be a complicated joint to assess, causing many patients to put off starting their physical therapy for hip pain.
But, now with the help of x-rays and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) they have been able to become a lot more exact with their hip pain diagnoses. Technology is now enabling physical therapists to develop and individualized therapy program for general hip pain like never before. Physical therapy for hip pain can also help individuals who are undergoing a total hip replacement, before and after surgery, making the recovery process much smoother.
