Abstract

Hip pain can have many causes, both arthritic and non-arthritic. Experts in managing hip pain developed a guideline to help rehabilitation clinicians help you understand more about hip pain. Here we explain what physical therapy might offer you if you have hip pain and arthritis has been ruled out. You will find out about some of the leg strength and balance tests your physical therapist might ask you to do, and exercises to help alleviate your hip pain and improve your strength, movement and balance.<i>J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2023;53(10):643-644. doi:10.2519/jospt.2023.0506</i>.
