Hip pain is relatively common among adults of all ages. Older adults may suffer from degenerative hip diseases, while middle aged adults who were once athletic are prone to hip pain due to excessive sitting and previous sports injuries. Because of the hip joint’s involvement in most sports, runners and competitive athletes often develop hip pain from repetitive overuse or trauma. If left untreated, hip pain can have significant repercussions for the function and stability of other areas of your body.
