What is Hip Bursitis?
When the bursae in the hip are inflamed, they can cause hip bursitis. The bursae are in the joints between soft tissue and bone. They are filled with fluid to help provide cushioning and reduce friction when moving. In areas where the bursae become overused, they are irritated from repeated movements, which cause inflammation.
Hip bursitis can occur in anyone, regardless of age. Those involved in sports with a lot of running or hip movements, like soccer, hockey, or basketball, can be more prone to developing hip bursitis, especially if they experience a sports-related injury in the hip area.
What Causes Hip Bursitis, and What Are Common Symptoms?
With hip bursitis, the strain placed on the bursae is excessive, so it causes an inflammatory response. As such, movements become more painful. Other symptoms that could appear include:
- The skin has redness to it.
- The area appears to be swollen.
- The area feels warmer to the touch.
The pain and discomfort from hip bursitis can be more pronounced when changing position, such as from sitting to standing.
How is Hip Bursitis Diagnosed?
The most common method used to diagnose hip bursitis is a physical examination of the affected area. Your physiotherapist, osteopath, or chiropractor may perform an X-ray to look for bone spurs that could be irritating the bursae. An MRI might also be necessary when the structures are not fully visible from an X-ray.
