HIP PAIN
Hip pain is caused by repetitive wear and tear. The hips are used every time you walk, run or ride a bike. This constant use over time can lead to injury. Although the hip joint is quite durable, it’s still susceptible to injury. Over time, the cartilage in your hip may wear down and cause pain. In addition, the hip bone itself may fracture. If you’re experiencing constant hip pain that doesn’t improve with rest, we’d recommend you see a doctor to ensure you’re not increasing the damage with simple everyday activities.
