Why Do My Hips Hurt?
Your hip is one of the body’s largest and most complex joints, built to carry your weight, absorb impact, and allow smooth movement in every direction.
But when any part of this structure, including the bones, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, or bursae, becomes damaged or inflamed, it can lead to hip pain. Sometimes it’s just temporary soreness after activity. However, ongoing pain may be caused by:
- Osteoarthritis
- Fractures or sudden trauma
- Muscle or tendon strains and tears
- Hormonal changes during menopause
- Conditions like bursitis or hip impingement
In some cases, problems in the back or pelvis can “refer” pain to the hip area. A hip specialist can help you pinpoint the source of your pain and guide you toward the right treatment.
When Should You See a Hip Doctor for Hip Pain?
You should consider seeing a hip specialist if you notice:
- Persistent, sharp pain lasting more than two weeks
- Severe stiffness limiting your range of motion
- Pain that disrupts daily activities or sleep
- Difficulty walking or bearing weight
- Pain following an injury or fall
- Swelling, warmth, or redness around the hip joint
- Clicking or grinding sensations when moving your hip
- Pain that worsens with activity or doesn’t improve with rest
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, Dr. Mehta can help determine the underlying cause and guide your treatment plan. Book your consultation today!

Common Hip Conditions We Treat
Hip Arthritis
Experiencing stiff or sore hips? Arthritis may be the cause, which can make everyday movement difficult. Dr. Mehta offers targeted physical therapy, injections, PRP, and, if needed, hip replacement to reduce discomfort, so you can move freely again.
Hip Impingement
Sharp pain in your hip or groin when you bend, squat, or sit? This may be hip impingement, where the hip bones rub or pinch inside the joint. Through therapy, injections, or surgery when necessary, Dr. Mehta eases joint pressure and protects the joint, helping you stay active and pain-free.
Tendon Problems
Is your hip stiff or tender, especially on the side? This is often due to a tendon issue, such as tendonitis or a small tear.
Dr. Mehta focuses on easing pain and restoring flexibility with targeted rehab, PRP injections, or surgery (if needed), so you can do what you love without discomfort.
Hip Bursitis
Pain on the outside of your hip when lying down? It could be bursitis, caused by inflammation of the fluid sacs around your hip. Dr. Mehta customizes treatment plans to reduce inflammation and restore movement, helping you reclaim your strength and freedom.
