What Is Hip Osteoarthritis?
Hip osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint condition where the cartilage cushioning the ball-and-socket joint wears away. As cartilage deteriorates, bones begin to rub together, causing pain, stiffness, inflammation, and limited mobility. Over time, everyday movements such as walking, climbing stairs, or even standing can become difficult or painful.
This condition most commonly affects older adults but can also develop earlier in life due to injury, overuse, or genetic predisposition.
Signs and Symptoms of Hip Osteoarthritis
Recognizing the Early and Advanced Stages
The symptoms of hip osteoarthritis typically develop gradually but may intensify without proper care. Common signs include:
- Deep aching pain in the groin, hip, or outer thigh
- Morning stiffness or after sitting for extended periods
- Pain during or after physical activity
- Reduced range of motion in the hip joint
- Difficulty bending, squatting, or rotating the hip
- Clicking, locking, or grinding sensations in the joint
- Limping or changes in walking pattern
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, a diagnostic evaluation at iSpine can help determine the stage of your condition and the best treatment path forward.
What Causes Hip Osteoarthritis?
Understanding Risk Factors and Contributors
Hip osteoarthritis often develops due to a combination of factors, including:
- Age-related cartilage breakdown
- Prior injuries, such as dislocations or fractures
- Obesity or excess mechanical stress on the joint
- Genetic predisposition
- Inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis
- Congenital hip deformities or joint misalignments
Our experienced team in Pasadena performs comprehensive assessments to uncover the root cause of your joint degeneration and to develop a treatment plan that supports long-term recovery and mobility.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hip Osteoarthritis
Is hip osteoarthritis reversible?
While the condition itself cannot be reversed, the symptoms can be managed very effectively with non-surgical therapies that slow progression and reduce pain.
How does laser therapy help with hip osteoarthritis?
Laser therapy stimulates healing and circulation in the joint tissues, reduces inflammation, and improves mobility. It’s a safe and effective option for chronic joint conditions like osteoarthritis.
Can I avoid hip replacement surgery?
Many patients are able to successfully manage their hip osteoarthritis with conservative treatments such as laser therapy and physical rehabilitation, especially if care begins early.
How many laser sessions will I need?
The number of sessions depends on the severity of your condition and your response to treatment. Most patients start to see improvement within a few sessions and continue with a short-term treatment plan.
