What is hip joint pain?
As you age, hip joint pain becomes a common complaint of your life. However, pain due to aging and natural wear & tear of the hip joint is common, but sometimes, even at a young age such pain may arise following any injury, poor posture, weak bones, or joint disorder.
The hip joint is mainly made up of a ball and socket. It is the area where your femur (thigh bone) adjoins the pelvis. Whenever you sit, stand, walk, or run, it involves the use and eventually the wear & tear of your hip joint. But to prevent such joint damage, there exists an articular cartilage around the ball and socket which further through its protective layer, called synovium, releases a fluid that keeps the joints naturally lubricated so that you can move your hip joint with ease.
In case, any damage happens to the articular cartilage, the individuals may start to experience hip joint pain. Besides that arthritis, sports injury, aging, low bone density, and accompanying joint disorders may also contribute to hip joint discomfort and pain.
Treating hip joint pain in Ayurveda involves treating the actual root causes of the problem and awakening the natural strength of the hip joint. Countless patients who believed in Ayurvedic healing, are today no longer having any hip-related problems.
