Do you find it difficult getting out the bed, car or even a chair? Do you find yourself limping and turning your foot out to the side? Do you have groin pain but don’t remember doing anything to get a groin strain? Often it also has pain in the front of the thigh. This is a very common presentation of hip pain. Often it is confused with a hernia or a muscle strain that just doesn’t resolve as you would expect it to or doesn’t have a clear injury mechanism. It’s often stiff and achey and people learn to live with this feeling everyday. They put it down to old age, wear and tear, or just accept that the need to wait for a hip replacement. Often the go to see their GP get painkillers and encouraged to rest while occasionally getting an X-ray which may or may not show much degenerative changes which are completely normal process of ageing and not correlated to your pain or symptoms. In many ways this is ineffective and your normally referred for NHS physio at this point and the waiting list can be anywhere between 12-24 weeks.
