What Is Hip Pain?
What Is Hip Pain?
Hip pain refers to discomfort in or around the hip joint, which plays an important role in supporting movement and stability. It can range from mild stiffness to more noticeable pain that affects daily activities.

- Pain when lying on one side
- A dull ache or sharp pain with certain movements
- Tightness around the hip or upper leg
