OVERVIEW

ABOUT HIP PAIN TREATMENT

Hip pain is easy to misjudge on your own, mostly because several different problems all turn up in roughly the same neighborhood. Somebody walks in certain they've got arthritis and the joint turns out to be perfectly fine. The next person blames a pulled muscle when the joint really was the problem all along.

The thing that sorts most of it out is where exactly it hurts. Deep in the groin usually points to the joint itself. Out on the side, tender when you press it or lie on it, is more often the tissue sitting over the bone. Pain back in the buttock frequently traces to your low back or the deep hip muscles. And anything traveling down the leg means a nerve has gotten in on it.

That's four different problems wanting four different treatments, which is why guessing costs people months. The good news is most hip pain, whatever's behind it, gets better without surgery. At Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of Chandler, AZ, we figure out what's actually going on and go after that.

DIAGNOSE

EXAM & IMAGING

We ask where and when it hurts, move the hip through positions that load different structures, and check your strength and how you walk. Imaging comes in when it'll change the plan.

TREATMENTS

CUSTOM TREATMENT PROGRAM

We settle the painful area, then build the strength and mechanics that keep load off it so the relief actually holds.

Office was very welcoming from the moment you walked into the office, Marissa and Kelsey were there to greet me. They know all of their patients and treat them like family. Dr. Dault was AMAZING. SHE listened and really searched to find the answers to my pain. Eric was very thorough when doing my ultrasound to diagnose my issue. Their recommendations helped me and in the end my pain decreased! Thank you to the entire team!

I was in a pretty dark place before starting at the Chandler location. My low back pain was completely debilitating and affecting the quality of my life for many years. I saw Phil once a week for 6 weeks and feel stronger and more confident than I have in many, many years. Phil explained the results of my MRI in great detail and answered my questions (as trivial as they might have been) with respect and understanding... I have been to many physical therapists before and the results I got here were the best. I highly recommend the Chandler location and will go back again if I ever need to!

What Are You Experiencing?

You don’t need to know the exact name of what’s going on and most people don’t. What matters is how it feels to you. Use the short form to tell us, even if it’s just “my back hurts when I wake up” or “it feels like a sharp pinch.” Once we see it, we’ll give you a call to talk things over and figure out some next steps together.

  LOW  HIGH  

SEVERE PAIN

If the pain is so bad you can’t think straight, please stop here and call 911 or go to the hospital. Getting safe is the first step. When you’re ready afterward, we’ll be here to talk about longer-term help.

MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT

This kind of pain might not knock you down, but it makes life harder than it should be. Maybe it’s a stabbing pain when you move a certain way, or maybe it’s a dull ache that just won’t quit. Write it down as best you can. That’s all we need to get started.

MINOR PAINS & ACHES

Little things add up, too. A stiff neck, sore knees, or that nagging twinge you keep brushing off all matter. Share what you’ve been noticing, and we’ll help you keep it from becoming something bigger.

Answering Your Questions

Why does my hip hurt more at night than during the day?

Usually comes down to position. Lying on the sore side puts direct pressure right on the outer hip, which is miserable if that's what's inflamed. Joint problems tend to stiffen up while you're still and then ache when you shift. A pillow between the knees helps a lot of people.

Is hip pain always a sign of arthritis?

No, and that assumption sends plenty of people down the wrong road. Arthritis shows up as a deep groin ache with stiffness. Outer hip pain that's sore to the touch is usually something else entirely, and it wants different treatment.

Could my back be causing this?

It can, and it happens more than people expect. Nerve irritation in the low back refers pain right into the buttock and hip, which is why we test your back and nerve function even when the hip is what's bothering you.

Will strengthening really change anything?

For most people, that's the piece that makes relief stick. Hip pain often traces back to muscles not holding the pelvis steady, so the joint and the tissue around it end up absorbing more than they should. Sort that out and it quits coming back.

When would a replacement come up?

Only when the joint is genuinely worn out, the pain never lets up, and conservative care has hit its ceiling. Most hip pain never gets anywhere near that point.

"When an athlete gets injured, a team of doctors and therapists evaluates them, orders imaging, and decides the best path forward. If surgery is needed, they go straight to surgery; if not, they get condition-specific physical therapy and targeted injections to speed healing. This is the same process pro athletes use to get back on the field quickly—and at Modern, you can access that same level of care for the same cost as any other physical therapy clinic."   - Josh Adams
