Hip Pain — Which Doctor Should I See?

Hip pain can result from arthritis, bursitis, muscle strains, labral tears, or hip flexor tightness. Poor posture, overuse, or injury are frequent culprits. Consult a doctor for persistent pain.

Seek medical attention if pain persists beyond two weeks, limits daily activities, follows an injury, or is accompanied by swelling, redness, or difficulty walking.

Try rest, ice packs, over-the-counter pain relievers, gentle stretching, and physical therapy exercises. Maintain proper posture and avoid activities that worsen symptoms.
