What Are the First Signs of Hip Problems?

Is a bad hip affecting your daily activities? Hip problems can cause pain and are a common concern for many people, particularly as we get older and maintain an active lifestyle.

The specific location of hip pain can help to pinpoint the underlying cause. This can include problems in the tendons, muscles, ligaments, and other soft tissues surrounding the hip joint, or an issue in the lower back or spine. Hip pain can be felt in the outer hip, groin, or upper thigh.

Hip problems are usually associated with age. However, without proper care, anyone can develop a worn joint – including the hip.

The following signs are frequent early symptoms of a hip problem:

1.     Hip Pain or Groin Pain

This pain is usually located between the hip and the knee. Hip pain can be felt during exercise, sleep, or when walking. It can lead to loss of motion of the hip.

Discomfort and soreness during or after exercise is often the earliest sign of hip arthritis. Hip pain can cause sleep problems, as the discomfort affects your natural movement at night. Moreover, if the pain in the hip prevents you from walking short or regular distances, immediately see a specialist for a medical evaluation and treatment.

2.     Stiffness

A common symptom of stiffness in the hip is difficulty putting on your shoes or socks. You may also find it difficult to bend down or to pick up something from the ground.

3.     Limping

A serious symptom of a hip problem is when you start to limp when walking. Limping can either be acute or chronic, and it can be treated with proper medical care by an orthopedist.

4.     Swelling and Tenderness of the Hip

Another sign of a problem in the hip is swelling and tenderness. Swelling can occur internally or at the outer skin and muscle. If it becomes unbearable or doesn’t go away in a few days, immediately contact your doctor.

These symptoms may vary depending on the cause of the pain. If not treated, hip pain can be a cause of disability, which is why it is so important to consult with an experienced physician who is a specialist in the hips and other joints.
