Hip Pain Treatment

Hip Pain & How to Find Relief

Hip pain is a serious issue that affects millions of people across the globe, limiting mobility and genuinely impacting quality of life. From athletes dealing with overuse injuries to older adults managing arthritis, hip problems can affect anyone at any age.

The intricate nature of the hip joint – where numerous muscles, tendons, and ligaments intersect – means that even minor injuries can cause great discomfort and limit your function in daily activities. Dr. Stephen Massimi specializes in the treatment of the hip joint and surrounding structures, with a focused approach that allows him to properly address conditions that are too often misdiagnosed.

Our approach centers on preserving natural joint function while providing pain relief by focusing treatment on the root cause of the condition. Treatment is usually conservative through physical therapy education, and only when necessary, minimally invasive procedures. Dr. Massimi is devoted to bringing the highest level of personalized care to his patients, taking the time to thoroughly evaluate each patient and ensure they are educated throughout the process.

What to Expect

During your initial visit with Dr. Massimi, you can expect a detailed approach to your care. He’ll take the time to fully understand your symptoms, medical history, and perform a thorough physical exam for the most accurate diagnosis. Dr. Massimi will then educate you about your condition, and work with you to create a customized treatment plan designed to relieve your hip pain and improve mobility and overall function.

Your treatment may include guidance on a modified exercise routine and education through physical therapy. Most patients do not need injections to achieve full recovery, but injections may be helpful in some instances. If necessary, Dr. Massimi can help you weigh options for image-guided injections. This may include cortisone injections, hyaluronic acid injections, and platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) injections.

At every step of the process, Dr. Massimi will stay closely connected with you and your other healthcare providers to monitor your progress and make sure you’re receiving the right care for a complete recovery.
