Hip Pain Treatment in Powell, OH
If hip pain is making it hard to sit, stand, work, exercise, or keep up with your family, life gets small fast. At Be Aligned Health here in Powell, we believe your doctor should do more than help you “get through the day” with pain pills or temporary relief.
Your body is designed to move. When your hips hurt, it’s usually a sign that something deeper is out of balance—often in your spine, posture, or lifestyle habits. Our job is to help you uncover
why
you’re hurting and then build a customized plan to correct it, so you can get back to feeling and functioning at your best.
Understanding Hip Pain
Your hip joint is the largest ball-and-socket joint in your body. It supports your weight, stabilizes your pelvis, and transfers force every time you walk, run, or bend. When the hip stops working the way it should, you can feel it in many ways.
Common Symptoms of Hip Problems
- Deep aching or sharp pain in the hip or groin
- Stiffness or tight muscles around the hips and low back
- Pain that radiates into the thigh, buttock, or leg
- Swelling or inflammation around the hip
- Limping or favoring one leg
- Trouble getting out of a chair, into the car, or walking normally
Sometimes hip pain is truly coming from the hip joint itself. Other times, the hip is where you feel it, but the real problem is higher up in the spine, pelvis, or even due to nerve irritation.
What Causes Hip Pain?
Hip pain can be caused by a single injury or by wear and tear over time. Common contributors include:
- Misalignment of the spine or pelvis
- Osteoarthritis or joint degeneration
- Inflammation in the tendons or bursa (bursitis, tendonitis)
- Muscle imbalances or tightness
- Overuse from sports or repetitive motion
- Past injuries or fractures
- Nerve irritation from the low back or sacroiliac joints
- Excess body weight putting extra stress on the joints
The reason we take hip pain seriously is simple: If the underlying cause isn’t addressed, pain often becomes chronic and can severely limit your ability to move and live the way you want.
