Hip Joint
Injections

Hip joint injections reduce inflammation and stiffness from arthritis, bursitis, or overuse injuries. Corticosteroid injections calm painful flares, while PRP / Stem Cell Injection supports tissue recovery in chronic tendinopathy. Each plan integrates Physical Therapy & Rehab to retrain hip-core mechanics and gait, helping patients walk farther, sit comfortably, and return to daily activity with smoother movement and less pain.

Hip osteoarthritis causes deep aching and stiffness with weight-bearing, while a labral tear often leads to catching or sharp pinching. Corticosteroid Joint Injection can ease inflammatory pain, but structural impingement may require Arthroscopy (Knee & Shoulder) for correction. When imaging reports conflict, our MRI/CT Second-Opinion clarifies the diagnosis so treatment targets the right cause, not just the symptoms, for lasting hip relief.

Yes—greater trochanteric pain often involves a combination of gluteal tendinopathy and bursitis. We treat it through Physical Therapy & Rehab, load management, and, if necessary, image-guided Corticosteroid Joint Injection or PRP / Stem Cell Injection. When symptoms persist due to mechanical impingement, Arthroscopy (Knee & Shoulder) may be recommended to restore proper hip alignment, reduce friction, and promote smoother, pain-free motion during walking or exercise.

Injections are best for inflammation or mild degenerative pain, while Arthroscopy (Knee & Shoulder) is preferred for labral tears or impingement. Our specialists use injections to calm inflammation first, then evaluate mobility and imaging. If pain persists or catching limits motion, arthroscopy addresses the mechanical cause directly. We combine every phase with Physical Therapy & Rehab to ensure durable hip stability and control.

After a hip joint injection, you may feel brief soreness that eases within one to two days. Our team provides post-injection activity rules and a progressive exercise plan through Physical Therapy & Rehab. This program strengthens the hip-core complex, retrains gait, and improves joint balance. Most patients notice smoother movement, reduced stiffness, and greater endurance during standing, walking, or athletic activity.

All hip injections are performed by fellowship-trained physicians specializing in Pain Management and Orthopedics. Procedures are ultrasound-guided for precision and safety. Each patient receives a tailored plan combining Physical Therapy & Rehab for recovery and prevention. If mechanical pinching or catching remains, our team may discuss Arthroscopy (Knee & Shoulder) to correct joint alignment and support long-term functional improvement.
