Description:

Hip osteoarthritis is a serious medical condition. Of the more than 100 types of arthritis osteoarthritis is the most prevalent, and the hip joint is the second most commonly affected large joint in the body. There are various stages of osteoarthritis of hip. Stage 1  refers to minor wear and tear on the hip joint.  A person may feel little or no pain. Stage 2 : A person may experience discomfort as well as pain in their hip. Stage 3 : This is the stage at which cartilage starts breaking down, causing additional discomfort soreness and inflammation. Larger spurs of bone may also form. Stage 4:  Is severe stage. Chronic pain, as well as inflammation, are probable in people in this stage of osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis develops when the cartilage on the surface of the joint (also known as articular or hyaline cartilage) wears down and exposes the bare bone underneath. In a joint cartilage typically acts as a "pad" or bearing. The cartilage bearing is smoother than a hockey puck on ice in normal circumstances. When the bearing wears down, the result is a roughened joint surface, which causes the pain and stiffness associated with osteoarthritis.

Cause:

The disorder known as hip arthritis is brought on by the degeneration of cartilage in the hip joint which exposes the bones to greater risk of harm. Pain around the hip joint can result from bone-on-bone rubbing. Other causes that relate to hip arthritis include • Injuries caused by trauma. • Damage to cartilage and other hip joint structures (due to an accident or sports injury) • Genetics- Osteoarthritis appears to be hereditary. • Extra pounds. The strain of carrying extra weight on joints worsens wear and tear.

Symptom:

The typical symptoms of any type of arthritis are applicable for hip osteoarthritis   • Tightness in the hip region, including the thighs and groin • Hip and groin pain • Difficulties moving the hip in various directions • Having difficulty walking
