The hip joint works functionally with the knee joint and is subjected to intense stress during most daily activities. Hip and pelvis injuries can result from various factors such as a fall, direct blow, twist, or excessive muscle contraction. Injuries can include dislocations, broken bones, and strained muscles. However, hip pain is often a manifestation of pain from other parts of the body such as the lower back.
