The hip joint is the articulation area between the pelvis and the leg to support the weight of the body posture. As we use our hips for walking, rotating and flexing the leg, it is subjected to loads during almost all movements. Therefore, it is not surprising that the hip joint is liable to injury or development of degenerative joint diseases, such as osteoarthritis.

One of the consequences of any joint disease is pain.

Hip pain limits your daily activities, affects your mood, your health and, definitely, your general wellbeing.

Do you want to get rid of the pain?
Yes you can!

There are a number of solutions, surgical and non-surgical, to treat your disease. Ask your doctor what is the most suitable treatment for your age, activity level and expectations.

In case of advanced osteoarthritis, hip pain and stiffness severely limit your life and your doctor may suggest that you undergo a total hip replacement.
