Hip pain can affect individuals of all ages, limiting movement, comfort, and overall quality of life. Causes range from acute injuries (such as muscle strains or labral tears) to degenerative conditions like osteoarthritis. Other potential contributors include bursitis, tendonitis, or inflammatory disorders. Symptoms may manifest as discomfort in the groin, thigh, or even radiate toward the knee, often worsening with activities like walking, climbing stairs, or prolonged standing.
