Hip pain and stiffness is a common condition treated at Airrosti. The hip is one of the largest joints in the body. To function correctly and with full range of motion, the ligaments, muscles, and fascia surrounding the joint must be working in unison. To know how to best treat hip pain, you should understand how it occurs, what symptoms to look out for, and what kind of treatment may be best for you.
Still have questions or concerns about your hip pain? Schedule a no-cost video chat with one of our Providers.
The hip joint is designed to withstand repeated motion and a fair amount of wear and tear. This ball-and-socket joint allows for fluid lower body movements. While many causes of hip pain can arise from the joint itself, there are numerous structures surrounding the hip that can also be the source of pain.
Untreated acute trauma is often the cause of hip pain, but any source of inflammation may cause discomfort in the hip area. Pain is one of the symptoms of inflammation, along with swelling, warmth, and redness; together these are signals and symptoms that a problem may exist.
Aside from an acute injury, some other causes include overuse injuries in which muscles, tendons, and ligaments can become inflamed. Overuse of the hip can also wear away the cartilage in the hip joint, causing arthritis. Common hip problems caused by strain and overuse include hip tendonitis/tendinitis, hip bursitis, and hip flexor strain.
You may also experience referred pain from other structures outside the hip joint. This means that, while the hip hurts, the problem may originate elsewhere, such as Snapping Hip Syndrome being actually being caused by the iliotibial band.
Depending on the condition that’s causing your hip pain, you may feel discomfort in various parts of your body, including:
• In the upper thigh
• Inside or outside of the hip joint
• Around the groin
• Around the buttocks
• In the low back
Signs of an inflammatory condition like tendonitis or bursitis often include:
• Reduced range of motion in the hips
• Tenderness and swelling
• Stiffness in the hip muscles and joints
• Increased pain when pressure is added to the affected area
• Increased fatigue during physical activity
• Pain may be worse at night, when lying on the affected hip, when you move your hip, and when getting up from a seated position
Surgery is not always necessary for hip pain. In many cases, conservative treatments such as rest, physical therapy, Airrosti care, medication, and lifestyle modifications can effectively manage symptoms and improve hip function. Surgery may be considered if conservative treatments fail to provide relief, or if there is evidence of severe damage to the hip joint such as arthritis, labral tears, or a fracture.
It’s generally safe to take medications for hip pain, but it’s important to use them as directed by your healthcare provider. Over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can help reduce inflammation and alleviate discomfort. Prescription medications such as muscle relaxants or corticosteroid injections may be recommended for more severe cases of hip pain. It’s important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication regimen, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.
Yes, there are several self-care techniques and exercises that can help alleviate hip pain. These may include gentle stretching exercises to improve flexibility, strengthening exercises to stabilize the hip joint, and low-impact activities such as swimming or cycling to maintain mobility and reduce stress on the hip. Additionally, applying ice or heat to the affected area, and maintaining a healthy weight can also help alleviate hip pain.
While it’s important to avoid activities that exacerbate hip pain, completely restricting all activity may not be necessary. Modifying activities to reduce strain on the hip joint and incorporating rest breaks can help alleviate symptoms. Low-impact exercises such as walking or gentle yoga can be beneficial for maintaining mobility and promoting healing. However, if hip pain persists or worsens with activity, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and guidance on activity modification.
I came in with severe pain in my left hip radiating down my hamstring and calf. Within 3 visits to Airrosti the pain was gone to almost zero. Thank you so much !

I had been experiencing extreme pain in my hips for about a year, when sitting, which made it hard to drive my bus route. So, I contacted Airrosti and Dr. Tom Danisiewicz prescribed some stretches and exercises that alleviated the pain, and I lost a couple pounds! I highly recommend their services.

I like to push myself and thought I had done too much on the treadmill. Turns out I had some arthritis in my left hip. Dr. Danisiewicz gave me some hip-strengthening exercises to do, and they worked wonders! I did them faithfully every morning when I woke up, and they helped so much! My telehealth visits were perfect, because I still work, and could have my appointment when I got home. I am extremely happy with the outcome, and it was worth the effort I put in!

I came in with a hip impingement that was affecting my comfort in everyday activities, limiting my range of motion, and flaring up during workouts. Dr. Garza diagnosed the issue then explained how all the other muscles were affecting it and detailed the plan on how to get back to normal. After one visit, I was already feeling better. Throughout treatment, I asked lots of questions and always got quick and helpful responses. I am about a week out from my last appointment and am feeling great.
by Catherine Fields
Dr. Garza was fantastic from start to finish and helped me fix my hip pain. His communication was great and his treatments were effective. Would highly recommend him to anyone considering using him!

Dr. Moore is great at listening and identifying why you’re in pain. She is excellent at getting you out of pain. Due to inactivity on my part because of a chronic illness my hip and glute had gotten so twisted that I could not stand or walk for more than 10 minutes before my leg felt like it would collapse. Three visits and I’m able to walk for about 45 and am getting better day by day.

Dr. Tran is one of the most thorough, compassionate, knowledgeable, and dedicated doctors I have experienced in my years with multiple injuries from sports and just the physical tolls of daily life. She takes her time to understand the pain one of experiencing, explains her rationale for treatment, and provides exceptional hands- on care to treat chronic and acute pain. She has helped me effectively manage hip and hamstring pain that had be very down and discouraged. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting or needing a true solution to pain and that values a highly educated, compassionate, and talented doctor. She is the best!
by Natalie Hutson
Dr.Moore really helped me with my hip pain and so much more. She was so thoughtful and gave me a lot of insight into my pain and my body in general. I felt like she listened and applied what I said to treatment. Will definitely go back to her if I have any other issues in the future!

So glad to have met Dr. Brittany at my gym. She was right on time in helping me resolve a nagging hip issue. I looked forward to the visits. Within 4 sessions I am feeling 100% better. I am proof that this therapy works!

My daughter is a 13 year old competitive dancer and has been experiencing hip pain for a couple years. Nothing terrible but we went and saw her pediatrician and a chiropractor with minimal results. Then it got worse, spread into her hamstring and was really causing her a lot of pain when dancing. A dance teacher recommended Airrosti and I’m so glad we found Dr. Patel through just a google search! There was immediate relief after the very first visit!! And after only 3 visits the pain was gone! It sounds too good to be true but it really worked! AND beyond helping her pain she was able to connect with a 13 year old girl! That in itself is a huge task! My daughter felt comfortable, I felt comfortable, the entire experience was great! I h...+ show moread to tell my daughter to stop talking to her so we could leave and she could see her next patient! My daughter, not me, has already referred 2 clients to Dr. Patel who are also satisfied and I’m sure we will send more! All the stars!!
