Hip and Knee Conditons

Common Hip Conditions: 

  • Hip osteoarthritis: This condition causes the cartilage in the hip joint to wear down, resulting in pain, stiffness, and inflammation. 

  • Hip bursitis: This is a painful condition that affects the bursae, small fluid-filled sacs, located near the hip joint. 

  • Hip labral tears: A labral tear is a tear in the cartilage that surrounds the hip socket. This can cause pain and limit mobility. 

Common Knee Conditions: 

  • Knee osteoarthritis: This condition causes the cartilage in the knee joint to wear down, resulting in pain, stiffness, and inflammation. 

  • Patellofemoral pain syndrome: This is a common knee condition that causes pain in the front of the knee, usually during activities that involve bending the knee. 

  • Meniscal tears: A meniscal tear is a tear in the cartilage in the knee joint that can cause pain and limit mobility.
