Why Hip Pain Happens—and Why It’s So Common Here

Hip pain can sneak up on you, whether it’s a sharp twinge after running along the lakeshore, a dull ache that lingers after a day of walking through Lincoln Park, or stiffness from hours spent cheering at Wrigley Field. The hustle and bustle of Chicago living, paired with weather extremes, puts unique demands on your hips and joints. Sometimes, it’s related to sports injuries, like it band hip pain or hip bursitis. Other times, it’s the result of daily wear-and-tear, previous joint replacement rehab, or even challenges after a hip replacement. No matter the cause, our approach is always personal and rooted in your goals.
