If your hip hurts, it’s a clear sign that…

4. Reduced Joint Mobility

Joints are designed to move.

When movement becomes limited:

• Joint fluid circulation decreases
• Cartilage nutrition declines
• Stiffness increases

This can lead to pain, especially in the morning or after inactivity.

Stiff hips are often a sign of:

• Reduced mobility
• Inadequate movement patterns
• Inflammation

5. Inflammation in the Hip Area

Inflammation is another common contributor.

It may involve:

• Tendons (tendinitis)
• Bursae (bursitis)
• Muscles

Inflammation often causes:

• Sharp or burning pain
• Pain when lying on one side
• Tenderness to touch

This type of pain usually worsens with repetitive movement.
