Overview

Hip pain can affect your ability to walk, exercise, or rest comfortably. It may develop from arthritis, soft tissue inflammation, trauma, or referred pain from the lower back or pelvis. Whether the discomfort is localized in the groin, side of the hip, or radiates down the leg, identifying the underlying cause is key to effective treatment.

At Restore Spine and Pain, we help patients manage hip pain from a variety of causes, including orthopedic conditions, work-related injuries, or age-related degeneration—offering non-surgical solutions to help improve mobility and quality of life.
