Hip pain can be incredibly debilitating. Whether you’re sitting down or on your feet, the hip is involved in virtually all bodily movement. During these voluntary motions, if you feel any sudden hip pain and can’t walk, there may be an issue with the ligaments, tendons and other soft tissue that surround your hip joint. While there are many therapeutic and non-surgical solutions to your hip pain, IBJI understands that not every patient will be able to use assistive devices such as braces, canes or other various supports. IBJI hip specialists work to ensure our patients receive exclusively specific treatment so they can achieve acceptable physical strength, mobility and confidence.

When to Address Your Hip Pain in IL

One of the common reasons behind sharp hip pain is bursitis. The extra stress between the bone and soft tissue, possibly due to a poorly supported pelvis, is directly attributed to sudden hip pain. If you experience any level of hip pain with or without injury, such as hip bursitis, you may want to start making changes from the ground up. Since we walk with our feet, all of that movement and weight is translated to the hips. To combat this, avoid activities that worsen your symptoms and wear the right shoes utilizing IBJI prescribed custom-made orthotic inserts. These are great options for hip pain treatment and further stabilizing your pelvis. Please contact us at any of our Illinois locations and let our physicians apply the method that best fits your hip situation so you can walk without pain once again.
