What are Hip Injuries?
Hip injuries can be caused by several activities including playing sports, running, and falling. There are four different types of hip injuries which will be discussed in this article. A strained hip is when the hip is stretched or a ligament is torn. A ligament is the tissue that connects the bones to a joint.
Types of Hip Injury Another type of hip injury is bursitis which is when the hip’s bursa becomes inflamed. A bursa is the small fluid filled sac which acts as the cushion between the bone and other moving parts such as a muscle, tendon, or the skin. A dislocated hip is when the end of the bone becomes out of place.
Symptoms of Hip Injury Symptoms of a hip sprain include pain, swelling, bruising, or restricted movement from being unable to move the hip joint. You may experience a pop or tear when this sprain occurs. Symptoms of bursitis also include pain and swelling. With regards to dislocations, this is often visible and noticeably out of place.
Treatments for Hip Sprain To treat a hip sprain it is important to rest the injured area. It also helps to ice the hip or wear a bandage or device to compress the injured area. For more extreme cases, physical therapy may be necessary in order to relieve the hip pain and improve one’s mobility.
