Hip Pain Treatment
Hip pain is a common condition that can be caused by a variety of factors, including injury, overuse, or degenerative changes.
Sometimes other symptoms come with hip issues, such as:
​​
-
Nerve / sharp pain
-
Sciatic type pain
-
Numbness in glute / legs
-
Pain around groin area
-
Reduced range of movement
The treatment for hip pain depends on the underlying cause, severity, and duration of the pain. Here are some common hip pain treatments:
​
-
Rest: Resting for a short period (a day or two) can help relieve mild shoulder pain. Avoid carrying heavy objects can help too.
-
Exercise: Targeted exercise programs can help improve hip flexibility, strength, and range of motion. Gentle stretches and range of motion exercises are often recommended.
-
Pain medication: Over-the-counter pain relievers can sometimes help, but not always.
-
Physical Therapy: Physical intervention and exercises are both very effective in improving the hip joint.
