01 Overview
Understanding Hip & Thigh Pain
Hip and thigh pain can come from a variety of issues—arthritis, muscle strains, tendonitis, bursitis, or even problems in your lower back or pelvis. Athletes often deal with overuse injuries, while older adults may experience wear-and-tear that leads to stiffness and aching. Sometimes, simple movements like climbing stairs, getting out of a chair, or walking short distances become difficult. Without proper treatment, pain may worsen over time, limiting mobility and independence.
