Hip Pain

Hip pain is a common and disabling condition that affects patients of all ages. The differential diagnosis of hip pain is broad, presenting a diagnostic challenge. Luckily, at Right Path Physical Therapy, we are experts at determining source tissue for hip pain.

Patients often express that their hip pain is localized to one of three anatomic regions: the anterior hip and groin, the posterior hip and buttock, or the lateral hip. Anterior hip and groin pain is commonly associated with intra-articular pathology, such as osteoarthritis and hip labral tears. Posterior hip pain is associated with piriformis syndrome, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, lumbar radiculopathy, and less commonly ischiofemoral impingement and vascular claudication. Lateral hip pain occurs with greater trochanteric pain syndrome. 

We can explain all this to you and help simplify your pain to something manageable with a proven combination of exercise, movement retraining, and hands-on manual therapy. Your life is about to get a whole lot better.
