Home / Conditions / Hip & groin pain
Gluteal tendon pain, impingement and hip osteoarthritis all present differently.
Pain on the outside of the hip is usually gluteal tendinopathy; pain in the groin points more to the joint itself, whether that's impingement in younger people or osteoarthritis later. A clear diagnosis changes the plan completely.
We identify whether it's tendon or joint, treat accordingly, and build hip strength and mobility. Shockwave helps gluteal tendon pain; injection therapy can help a painful joint.
Get urgent advice if you have severe or spreading weakness, numbness around the back passage, loss of bladder or bowel control, unexplained weight loss, or pain that's severe and unrelenting at night. These are uncommon but need prompt assessment.
