Abstract:
The clinical diagnosis of hip pain is based on functional anatomy knowledge, detailed medical history and careful physical examination of the joints, periarticular soft tissue, nerve and blood supply, abdomen and thoracolumbal spine. Pain in the hip region may arise from the hip itself, adjacent bones or periarticular soft tissue and in addition thoracolumbal spine disorders, intraabdominal pathologies and peripheral vascular diseases can present with reffered pain in this region. Pain is the main symptom and it can be accompanied with morning stiffness and presence of systemic symptoms such as fatique, fever, weight loss or worsening of pain at night. Althought the technology for diagnostic testing is well developed, a detailed history is still as well as careful physical examination, essential for the precise diagnosis.
