Do you enjoy exercise or athletic activities like walking, jogging, running, racquet sports, golf, martial arts, yoga, pilates, dance, ice skating, hockey, soccer, and other sports?
Has pain in the hip (groin, buttock, outside of hip, or thigh) limited your ability to enjoy activities or even perform activities of daily living (ADLs) such as sitting, standing, walking, climbing stairs, and pivoting?
Have you tried limiting activities, possibly some over-the-counter medications, physical therapy, a home exercise program, or even an injection? Then a hip arthroscopy may be a viable treatment option.
Avascular Necrosis or Osteonecrosis is the loss of blood supply to the ball part of the hip joint.
Some infants and children have hip problems resulting in childhood hip disease. Even though the issues are successfully treated during childhood, they may cause arthritis later in life. This happens because the hip may not grow normally, and the joint surfaces are affected.
Dysplasia is a condition in which the hip socket is abnormally shallow. This puts more stress on the labrum to keep the femoral head within the socket and makes the labrum more susceptible to tearing (labral tear).
Osteoarthritis 0r OA is age-related wear and tear type of arthritis. It usually occurs in people aged 50 and older and often in individuals with a family history of arthritis. The cartilage cushioning the bones of the hip wears away. The bones then rub against each other, causing hip pain and stiffness. Osteoarthritis may also be caused or accelerated by subtle irregularities in how the hip developed in childhood.
