Dallas, TX ( prfree.org ) August 23, 2013 - The hip joint is designed to withstand repeated motion, and a fair amount of wear and tear. Despite its sustainability, however, the hip joint is not indestructible. Over time, the hip bone's cartilage can wear down, due to muscles and tendons in the hip being overused, often resulting in pain. This pain can often be substantial, making treatment necessary.

According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, hip pain can result from a variety of causes. Some of the most common causes include tendinitis, muscle strains, joint inflammation, stress fractures, and arthritic conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis, which are found in many older adults.
