Hip Pain Treatment Huddersfield

Hip bursitis

Hip bursitis occurs when the bursae, small fluid-filled sacs that cushion the muscles, tendons, and bones around the hip joint, become inflamed. The most common type is trochanteric bursitis, which affects the outer part of the hip. Symptoms include pain and tenderness on the outside of the hip, especially when walking, climbing stairs, or lying on the affected side. Hip bursitis is often caused by overuse, injury, or repetitive stress.

Hip Impingement (FAI)

Hip impingement, or femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), is a condition where abnormal contact between the bones of the hip joint occurs, leading to damage. In FAI, either the femoral head (ball) or acetabulum (socket) has an irregular shape, causing friction during movement. This can lead to pain, limited range of motion, and eventual cartilage or labral damage. It is common in young athletes but can affect anyone with an irregular hip structure.

Labral Tear

A labral tear involves damage to the labrum, a ring of cartilage that lines the hip joint and helps stabilize the femoral head in the acetabulum (socket). Labral tears can occur due to trauma, repetitive motion (common in sports), or conditions like hip impingement. Symptoms include pain in the groin or hip, clicking or locking sensations, and reduced range of motion. Labral tears can lead to instability in the hip joint if left untreated.

Hip Osteoarthritis

Hip Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint condition where the cartilage that cushions the hip joint wears down over time. This leads to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility in the hip. OA is more common in older adults but can also be caused by previous injuries or excessive joint strain. As the cartilage deteriorates, bones may rub together, causing pain and inflammation, often worse with activity and better with rest.

Groin Strain

A groin strain is an injury to the muscles of the inner thigh or front of the hip (adductor muscles). It occurs when these muscles are overstretched or torn, usually during sudden movements like running, jumping, or changing direction. Symptoms include pain and tenderness in the groin area, especially during movement, swelling, and sometimes bruising. Groin strains are common in sports involving quick directional changes, like soccer or basketball.

Your Hip Pain Has To Become A Thing Of The Past…

You might be experiencing sharp or dull pain in your hip joint or thigh. Stiffness and swelling may be limiting your movement, making even daily activities like walking, climbing stairs, or bending over a challenge. You could be dealing with muscle weakness, or even limping. Night pain might be interfering with your sleep, leaving you feeling exhausted and frustrated.

You just want some normality back, and to get that, you have to find the real cause of the issue. The problem is, you don’t know where to turn. GPs refer you, therapists say they can’t help you, and it makes you feel like pain may just be a permanent fixture in your life. We believe patients are failed on a daily basis. We understand recovery isn’t a simple process, which is why we have made it simple.

Our Simple Approach helped over 7500 patients in Yorkshire…

At Pro Sport Physiotherapy clinic we have already helped over 7500 patients in the Huddersfield and Yorkshire area achieve a pain-free life. We don’t just hear your problems. We offer you solutions.

Whether it’s hip ,shoulder, knee, or back pain we offer sure-fire results, without the years of therapy and osteopathy appointments. We use a step-by-step system developed over years of clinical and professional sports experience. It’s designed to give you two things. Confidence and clarity. The confidence to know where you are going, but more importantly the clarity in how to get there. From the first appointment, we listen to you, gather information, set realistic time-based goals, and provide a personal treatment plan. We guide you through each step toward a pain-free life.

Don’t Believe You Can Go Pain-Free?

In our clinic, it’s common to hear the phrase ‘I’ve just lived with it’. So many of our patients have spent years thinking there is nothing that can be done. That no treatment will help. People have lost faith in healthcare. The truth is that most conditions aren’t impossible to treat. There are simple treatment plans and an easy route out of pain. But the damage to your health from leaving these issues untreated can set you back. It’s something we see in our Huddersfield practice daily. A patient has left their back pain, shoulder pain, knee pain, joint issue, or arthritis for far too long. They don’t believe a solution was possible. They were failed by traditional approaches. You may feel that way but we want you to know, there are solutions to your problems. We want you to be able to do the activities you always loved doing. We want you to get back to a full range of movement, back playing the sports you’ve missed, and back with your loved ones.
