There are many reasons for a painful hip, one of which is hip impingement. Although the anatomical changes cannot be modified without surgery; pain management, strength training, mobility work and activity modification can allow you to do the things you want, without a visit to hospital.
Hip arthritis can be painful, but it doesn't have to be. I specialise in pain management and i have helped many people live a normal life with hip OA. Here are a few tips for you if you want to self manage.
- Maintain a healthy weight to reduce stress on the hip joint.
- Engage in low-impact exercises like swimming, walking or cycling to strengthen the hip muscles.
- Use assistive devices like canes or walkers to reduce pressure on the hip joint.
- Maintain hip mobility.
- Don't be afraid of resistance exercises.
