What is Hip Arthritis?

Hip arthritis is a common orthopedic condition, especially in the older population. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative condition that causes inflammation (swelling) and damage to the hip joint which causes pain, stiffness, and loss of movement. The hip is what is known as a “ball and socket” joint and osteoarthritis in the hip can cause the ball and socket to grind together and damage the joint.
If you have osteoarthritis of the hip the common symptoms can include:

Pain
Stiffness when standing or sitting
Tenderness
Decreased range of motion in the hip

Symptoms may range from very mild to severe but treating hip arthritis in its early stages can prevent pain and symptoms from getting worse. At OrthoNeuro, our Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeons have helped thousands of patients with hip arthritis live active and healthy lives using the latest non-surgical and surgical procedures.
