Where Hip Pain Really Comes From
One of the biggest misconceptions about hip pain is that it always comes from the hip joint itself. In reality, many cases are influenced by what’s happening in the lower back, muscles, or surrounding structures.
That’s why simply resting or stretching the hip doesn’t always solve the problem.
Some of the most common contributors include:
- Tight or overworked muscles
- Joint restriction or misalignment
- Poor movement patterns or posture
- Wear and tear over time
- Compensation from other areas of the body
At Brick Pain Relief & Wellness Institute, Dr. William Walsh looks at how everything is working together — not just where you feel pain — to pinpoint the cause.
Types of Hip Conditions We Treat
- Hip BursitisInflammation of the fluid-filled sacs that cushion the joint, causing pain with movement.
- Hip Flexor StrainTight or overstressed muscles in the front of the hip that limit mobility.
- Labral IrritationDamage to the cartilage in the hip joint that can cause pain, clicking, or instability.
- Hip ArthritisWear and tear in the joint leading to stiffness and reduced range of motion.
- Referred Pain from the Lower BackIssues in the spine that create pain felt in the hip area.
How Chiropractic Care Helps Hip Pain
Instead of focusing only on the painful area, chiropractic care treatments are designed to improve how your body moves so the stress on your hip is reduced.
Most care plans include a combination of:
- Chiropractic adjustments to improve alignment in the hips and lower spine, reducing uneven pressure on the joint and helping restore normal movement
- Spinal decompression to relieve pressure on discs and nerves in the lower back that may be contributing to hip or leg pain
- Massage therapy to release tight muscles in the hips, glutes, and lower back that can pull on the joint and cause discomfort
- Electrical stimulation to relax irritated muscles, reduce pain signals, and support the healing process
- Ultrasound therapy to deliver deep tissue stimulation that helps reduce inflammation and improve recovery in the affected area
- Custom foot orthotics to correct imbalances in how you walk or stand, which can reduce long-term stress on the hips
- Therapeutic exercises to improve flexibility, strengthen supporting muscles, and help prevent the pain from coming back
This approach helps relieve pain while also reducing the likelihood of it coming back.
When Hip Pain Is Actually Sciatica
Sometimes what feels like hip pain isn’t coming from the hip at all.
Conditions like sciatica can cause pain that starts in the lower back or hip area and travels down the leg. This type of pain may feel sharp, burning, or radiating, and is often accompanied by tingling or numbness.
Because the sciatic nerve originates in the lower spine, treating the root causes not just the area where you feel pain — is key to getting relief.
Dr. William Walsh will determine whether your symptoms are coming from the hip joint itself or from nerve-related issues and guide treatment accordingly.
Signs It’s Time to Get Your Hip Checked
Hip pain doesn’t always go away on its own, especially if it’s related to movement or alignment issues.
It may be time to get evaluated if:
- Your hip feels stiff or tight regularly
- Pain increases with walking, sitting, or standing
- Movement feels limited or uncomfortable
- The pain keeps coming back
- You notice discomfort spreading into your leg or lower back
- Daily activities are becoming more difficult
Addressing the issue early can help prevent it from becoming more persistent or limiting.
