Having hip pain?
Oviedo, FL Chiropractor can help with hip pain.
Hip pain affects many people and usually stems from having pelvic unleveling (uneven distribution of weight onto the hips) or abnormal rotation of the hip inside the socket during walking. Auto accidents, sports injuries, arthritis, and knee/ankle injuries are just a few issues that can contribute to hip pain. Hips that have uneven distribution of weight or the pelvis being out of alignment often cause pain and discomfort throughout the entire body. This is because your hips are responsible for supporting most of your body’s weight. Properly aligned hips keep your body in balance and allow for proper range of motion during walking and basic movements. When hips are shifted or out of alignment your body naturally compensates by altering movement in other areas. Just as the hips can cause ankle and knee issue, the knees and ankles can cause hip issues. These many components come together daily to enable you to walk properly.
Are my hips causing low back pain?
Hip issues often cause pain in the lower back and may contribute to sciatica symptoms. What is sciatica? Sciatica refers to pain that radiates from your low back to down the back of your legs. Sciatica may be accompanied by numbness, tingling and muscle weakness. This pain can vary widely, from a mild ache to a sharp, burning sensation. In some cases, sciatica pain can be excruciating and debilitating. It often starts gradually and intensifies over time. The pain may be worse when you sit, cough or sneeze. Therefore, it is important to receive a proper diagnosis immediately when dealing with chronic hip pain to prevent further injury and begin proper treatment.
