If we start to look at what causes hip pain we can see that there are a number of reasons why someone might be feeling discomfort in that area and strangely enough it isn’t always to do with the hip.
Causes of Hip Pain
Sometimes the pain can be ‘transferred’ from where the real problem is happening such as in the lower back or foot which causes an imbalance when walking and consequent discomfort in the weight bearing hip
Symptoms of Hip Problems
Some symptoms of hip joint pain to look out for might include the following: having difficulty walking on one side with maybe sharp or jagged pains on each step, not being able to stand in one place or position for too long without pain, pain in the hip joint when lifting a leg to go up steps.
You may be experiencing hip pain while sleeping or discomfort at night when lying on your side or difficulty in changing positions. Other signs might be feverish symptoms with redness or swelling in the area or ‘referred’ pains in the back, knee or ‘restless leg syndrome’. Of course if you have a hip fracture you would soon know it and would need immediate remedial surgery.
Types of Hip Problem – Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis and Osteoporosis
Burning hip pain and fevers could be indicative of rheumatoid arthritis which is a chronic inflammatory disease . A further cause of chronic hip pain could also be the degenerative condition, osteoarthritis and these conditions would require further investigation by your doctor or specialist. Osteoarthritis explained in a nutshell is that it is generally down to the wear and tear of the ball joint of the hip and it can wear down more quickly in people who do excessive amounts of exercise, running or fast paced walking
Moderate exercise is beneficial and specific exercises can be recommended according to the condition and its cause
Osteoporosis is a condition where the bone density in the skeletal system has declined and this can put you at risk for bone fractures such as a hip fracture.
It is more likely to occur if you smoke, drink high levels of alcohol and have a diet low in calcium.
The risk is also higher if someone else in the family has had it or if you have had a fracture earlier in adult life or if a woman has had early menopause which results in low estrogen levels since estrogen levels have an impact on bone density.
It is important to make an early accurate diagnosis of this condition, as with any hip pain problem so that measures can be taken to either prevent or limit the damage. Calcium supplements or a diet rich in calcium, which is best taken in combination with magnesium and potassium can help to prevent the onset of osteoporosis.
Bursitis and Tendonitis
Another common cause of hip pain is bursitis, an inflammation of the small bursae saces near the joints, or tendonitis and small tears in the muscles in that area and these often occur amongst people who are very athletic, such as tennis players or in people who do a lot of running or jogging.
Avescular Necrosis and Pagets Disease
Pain in the hip can also arise as a result of long term use of cortisone injections which lead to a deterioration of the bone due to a condition known as avascular necrosis linked to restricted blood supply to the bone. Or chronic pain may be due to Pagets disease which is a metabolic bone disorder of unknown origin. It is a chronic bone disease that affects bone growth, both deforming and weakening them, often in the pelvic area.
Hip Dysplasia
Congenital hip dislocation, otherwise known as hip dysplasia is a problem that some children are born with and if left unchecked can result in a painful limp and early risk of arthritis.
So, when confronted with hip pain it is important to be aware that there may be a number of possible causes and these need to be investigated as soon as possible so that appropriate treatment can be applied.

Chronic pain often long outlives its original cause, too much medication can harm your body an worsening over time and taking on a life of its own. Recent research has shown that chronic pain is destructive to your body. your best choice is TO cleanse to build strong immune systems. The longer chronic pain goes untreated, the worse it becomes. Chronic pain unleashes a cascade of harmful hormones, such as cortisol, that adversely affect your immune system and kidney function. You can’t expect it to go away by itself.
I have been dealing with lower back pain from a herniated disk for years now. I have been undergoing chiropractic therapy, physical therapy, and epidural shots…as well as pain medication. I don’t think I would ever consider back surgery unless it was to a point where i couldn’t walk.
sometimes, the exercise guides on the internet are a bit misleading”;;
For the younger population, bursitis and tendinitis are usually the causes, an ultrasound would help confirm these diagnosis. In the older population osteoarthritis and osteoporosis are more common, where x-rays and bone scan are helpful for diagnosis. In both cases act early and get them checked before they can turn into a chronic problem!
After reading what you have to write, I’m always motivated to think in a slightly different way… darn!
Which ones have you found to be misleading… and which ones are good?
You can definitely see your enthusiasm in the work you write. The world hopes for more passionate writers like you who aren?t afraid to say how they believe. Always go after your heart.
i take calcium lactate to prevent osteoporis`,`
the exercise guides on some of the internet websites are not really complete and some info needs to be updated`.~
osteoporosis can be alleviated by taking lots of calcium and magnesium supplements.”~
I’ve suffered with hip pain since 2000 after a head on collision. I never realized it would keep getting worse. In 2005 I broke the ankle opposite and was required to hop on my bad leg for almost 6 months using crutches and at times a walker. I am almost 37 now and suffer terrible pain. I am so grumpy most of the time just because I hurt and can’t make it stop. I worry about my future as a mother and a wife. The pain and inability to do things I once enjoyed has caused some depression. I need to know where to go from here. I feel so alone, people my age shouldn’t have to go through this. The thought of getting older and the pain getting worse is terriffying.
Hi
I am sorry to hear you are in so much pain. Have you ‘processsed’ the trauma of the crash yet? Our underlying traumatic experiences and emotions can keep pain going. Pain is often a way of saying ‘listen to me’ and when we do listen to, acknowledge and resolve any internal conflicts, the pain can dissolve completely. Check out the recommended resources on the site …. I have found Eft therapy in particular to be really helpful along with meditative visualisation. I was in chronic pain for over 20 yrs but am now ok
there are lots of exercise guides on the internet but some of them are not scientifically proven and just assumptions ~-`
everyone would come to an age of menoupause so just enjoy each day while you are young ,.”
too much vitamin-a can also cause osteoporosis but aging is the number cause of it *-:
Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.
This is really interesting, You’re a very skilled blogger. I have joined your feed and look forward to seeking more of your magnificent post. Also, I have shared your web site in my social networks!
Priceless information. Will check back very often for more great articles like this one.
Exercise and brisk walking sound good in the early stages of OA. However, having lived with the progression of the disease and loss of L4,L5 and damaged S1 there are no exercises that can remedy this stage. My hips are now affected and at night it feels like someone has hit my hip with a hammer. I take a mild opoid and muscle relaxer.
My exercise consists of mowing, fishing and playing ball with my 7 weiner dogs.
My mom got osteoporosis before. The doctors advice is for her to go outdoor in the morning for her to be seen by the sun since calcium cannot be absorb without vitamin D and sun is a good source of it. There are specific exercise given to people with backaches or other related cases.

My friend got this chip fracture on the hip, it was just a linear fracture but it was an excruciating pain. The doctor told her to lessen her caffeine intake and need to eat food rich in calcium. As I was looking at her in pain, I just can’t help and realize how painful it is to have those complete fracture. Wow! I just can’t help imagining those pins connected to your body.

Learned about tart cherry juice concentrate from my nurse for my gout pain. I started getting some a few weeks back and my joints feel great. I also got free shipping. Found some great books regarding tart cherry juice
I agree with the natural approach as well. So much of diseases are just from inflammation. We can control this somewhat however with our diet.

What a brilliant post. You should do a series!
I did a sort of blogging for dummies over on one of the craft forums and I thought it was too simple for them, but the amount of emails I got asking questions just like what you addressed was unbelievable. As young
people today we have grown up with computers, but it’s easy to forget that even people just a few years older have not! Really good post!
