Hips

The hip is a ball and socket joint that allows significant mobility and freedom of movement. The upper part of the joint is formed by the pelvic bone and the lower part is the top of the femur bone. Numerous muscles from the spine to the knee produce motion in the hip. Problems in any of these areas can cause symptoms that could be called hip pain. Careful examination and diagnostic tests can help to locate and treat the source of the discomfort.

Note: Pain in the hip area can sometimes be caused by a spine problem and pain in the groin area is often a sign of one of the hip conditions listed below.

Conditions

• Arthritis: A painful condition that affects the joints in the body.
• Dislocation of the Hip: A dislocation occurs when a bone is pulled or pushed out of place (out of its normal relationship to the other bones that make up a joint).
• Hip Labral Tear: A tear to a type of cartilage in the hip.
• Inflammatory Hip Conditions
• Osteonecrosis: When the blood vessels that supply blood to the bones gradually begin to cut off the supply.
• Osteoporosis: The disease that affects your bones.
• Pelvis Fracture: When a fracture occurs due to a fall or accident.

Knees

The knee joint is the largest and one of the most commonly injured joints in the body. It is made up of the lower end of the thighbone (the femur), which rotates on the upper end of the shinbone (the tibia), and the kneecap (the patella), which slides in a groove on the end of the femur.

The knee also contains large ligaments (like the anterior cruciate ligament), which help control knee movement by connecting bones and bracing the joint against abnormal types of movement. Other parts, such as the articular and meniscus cartilage, cushion your knee or help it absorb shock as you bend, straighten, and put weigh on it. The collateral ligaments run along the sides of the knee and help limit sideways movement.

• Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Injury
• Arthritis

Physical therapy and exercise (rehabilitation medicine)

For some conditions your doctor may prescribe physical therapy and/or exercises in order to strengthen or increase the mobility of the muscles, ligaments, and tissues around the area of the injury or condition. Conditions that may be helped by physical therapy or exercise include arthritis, shoulder instability, and lower back pain. Many times, exercise and physical therapy are also prescribed after surgical treatment options to ensure a full recovery.

Physical therapy may be helpful and your physician will provide you with a prescription. You can schedule an appointment for Orthopaedic Rehabilitation therapy with one of our Orthopaedic Rehabilitation therapy and therapists or a physical therapist in your community. The physical therapist will develop an exercise program that meets your needs based on your physical ability, condition, and your physician’s diagnosis.

It is important to follow the exercises as prescribed by your physician or physical therapist to ensure the best results for recovery and healing. However, if you are still having problems, let your physician and physical therapist know right away and they will either try another treatment option or change your exercise routine. call @91-9891666133 for more information about Orthopaedic Rehabilitation therapy.
