I heard a radio ad about how when people get older they need help with their hormones. I’m getting older and I’m starting to feel it. So I made an appointment with Tiffany Schultz and she’s helped me for about a year now. I sit a lot at my job and my hips and knees have been hurting. I made an appointment with the chiropractor and he adjusted me. He recommended I see the physical therapy team. I met with them for a few weeks and went back to the chiropractor again. it has made a big difference they’ve shown me some exercises I can do to keep my hips flexible and it’s made all the difference.

Hip Pain Explained

Hip pain can stem from a variety of conditions, some originating in the joint itself and others in surrounding muscles or even the lower back. Some of the conditions include:

  • Trochanteric Bursitis is a common condition that causes inflammation on the outside of the hip joint.
  • One of the most common causes of hip pain is arthritis. Many different forms of treatment are available to help alleviate hip pain caused by arthritis.
  • Muscle strains occurring around the hip and pelvis can cause spasms and pain. The most common are hamstring strains and groin pulls.
  • Tendonitis most frequently develops around the hip, commonly referred to as an iliotibial band, or IT band, tendonitis. However, tendonitis can develop in any of the tendons around the hip joint.
  • Lumbar pain, located in the spine and back, can also affect the hip and buttocks. Herniated discs and sciatica most commonly cause this pain around the hips.
