Hip Orthopedics
Staying active and mobile is essential for good health.
Arthritis, dislocation and fractures can all lead to hip pain and immobility issues. Signs of hip problems include pain, swelling, bruising, muscle weakness or numbness in the affected area.
Hip pain can lead to less movement and less exercise, affecting your overall health.
If you have hip pain or mobility issues, schedule an appointment with your primary care provider or local orthopedist.
Conditions We Treat
Bursitis Affecting Your Joints
Treating a Hip Fracture
A hip fracture is a common condition and without the proper care can lead to problems in mobility and overall quality of life. Hip fractures can happen be traumatic from a fall or a stress fracture, and it is important to have a comprehensive plan for treatment for both.
The Most Common Form of Joint Arthritis
Osteoarthritis is the most common type of hip arthritis. It is a slow deterioration of the cartilage that covers your hip’s ball and socket bone.
Hip Dislocation
A dislocated hip occurs when your femur is displaced from your hip socket. This condition is usually brought about as a result of great force which would normally cause a traumatic injury. However, if you have already gone through a hip replacement procedure, something as simple as bending down to tie your shoe could dislocate your hip.
