Although some think the outer aspect of their pelvis is the “hip,” they are really referring to muscles and not the joint itself. Clarifying the location of your pain will help your physical therapist figure out the source of your pain and the appropriate plan to resolve it. The inner aspect of the knee is commonly thought to be where most people experience early joint pain or cartilage injury. Pain along the outer aspect of the knee is typically due to tendon related injury or inflammation. A decreased range of motion and difficulty bearing weight can also be signs of deeper problems which may indicate a more serious condition that warrants seeking help sooner than later. Ignoring your pain, or waiting too long to be seen can make the problem worse and eliminate simple solutions. Often it’s inactivity and avoiding movement that can contribute to immobility and pain. We know that our joints need movement for blood flow and nutrition to stay healthy. While some hip, knee and leg pains go away, those lasting longer than several months may be hinting at a deeper issue.
