Hip Pain Relief Bergen County NJ
Your hip is a true ball-and-socket joint that allows for the fluid movements needed for activities of daily living, such as climbing a flight of stairs. As the body's largest weight bearing joint, it allows for circular motion in the leg and is built to withstand a lot but it is not indestructible and the joint is susceptible to degenerative diseases later in life. Hip joint problems tend to result in discomfort that can produce nagging pain in your thighs, groin, buttocks, and both inside or outside the legs. At the MedWell Center for Chronic Conditions Recovery, our doctors, physical therapists, orthopedic specialists and staff work hard to provide patients with the most advanced treatments for hip pain relief. Even if you've been told that you need hip replacement surgery, we believe you should work progressively through your nonsurgical options.

If you have been avoiding seeing a doctor about your hip pain in fear of needing a hip replacement, it is time for the doctors at MedWell to conduct a thorough assessment of your overall health including musculoskeletal disorders that may be contributing to your hip pain. Whenever possible, we recommend nonsurgical treatment options for hip pain relief, such as platelet rich plasma injections (PRP shots), to stimulate healing in damaged tendons, ligaments, muscles and bones. Since overuse and misuse are common culprits of hip pain, our hip pain specialists may recommend movement therapy. Many hip conditions can be helped by the right dietary supplementation as well as by the right stretching regimen.
Participating in competitive sports either past or present, being overweight, having a family history of hip pain, physical trauma, loss of muscle strength and the aging process are all potential contributors to your pain profile. Sciatica is another very painful condition that may radiate from your lower back, through your hip and down your buttock into your leg.
