Understanding Hip Pain in River Forest’s Active Community

Hip pain can sneak up on anyone—runners training for the next local 5K, busy parents chasing kids across Priory Park, or even weekend gardeners tending to backyard blooms. Maybe you’re recovering from a recent joint replacement, or you’ve noticed increasing soreness after long walks on the Prairie Path. Our hips take on a lot, especially with the daily wear and tear of an active River Forest lifestyle.

Common causes of hip discomfort include hip bursitis, it band hip pain, muscle strains, or lingering stiffness after hip replacement rehab. Sometimes, pain radiates down the leg, or you might notice knee pain that’s actually linked to hip function. Whether your discomfort is a sharp twinge while running, a dull ache after sitting at a local coffee shop, or tightness when you stand up after a long day, hip physical therapy is designed to address the root cause and restore comfortable movement.
