Causes of Hip Pain
Hip pain can be caused by a number of conditions, including:
- Broken hip bones
- Strained muscle or tendon: Can be caused by overuse or repeated activities.
- Trochanteric Bursitis: When the bursa (fluid-filled sac) at the greater trochanter is inflamed. Read more here.
- Gluteal Tendinopathy: This happens when the tendons which secure your gluteal muscles to the bone degenerate. Find out more here.
- Arthritis
