Understanding Hip Bursitis
What is Hip Bursitis?
Hip Bursitis is the inflammation of the bursae, small fluid-filled sacs that cushion the bones, tendons, and muscles around your hip joint. The most commonly affected bursa in Hip Bursitis is the trochanteric bursa, located on the outer side of the hip. When these bursae become inflamed, it can lead to significant pain and discomfort during everyday activities like walking or climbing stairs.
Common Causes
- Overuse: Repetitive activities such as running, cycling, or climbing stairs can put excess stress on the hip bursa.
- Injury or Trauma: A fall or direct impact to the hip can inflame the bursa.
- Poor Posture or Biomechanics: Improper posture or walking mechanics can contribute to hip bursitis.
- Arthritis: Conditions such as osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis can cause inflammation in the hip region.
- Leg-Length Discrepancy: Having legs of different lengths can put uneven pressure on the hips, leading to bursitis.
- Surgery: Hip surgeries, including hip replacements, can sometimes lead to bursitis as a complication.
Recognizing the Symptoms
- Hip Pain: Sharp or aching pain located on the outer side of the hip.
- Tenderness: Sensitivity and pain when pressing on the affected area.
- Pain with Activity: Discomfort during movement, especially when walking, climbing stairs, or getting up from a seated position.
- Swelling: Mild swelling around the hip joint.
- Limited Mobility: Difficulty moving the hip freely due to pain and stiffness.
