Hip pain is a common cause of hip disease. There are a number of hip diseases, the causes of which can be, for example, congenital deformities or inflammation. Here you will find an overview of the most common hip diseases.
In the following you will find the most common diseases and injuries of the hip, divided into:

Hip dysplasia is a childish maturation disorder with a disorder of the acetabular ossification. In the further development the femoral head can ball out of the socket = luxate and a hip dislocation develop.
Hip dysplasia is a high risk factor for developing hip arthrosis (coxarthrosis). The lack of a pan roof (bay window) makes the weight transfer from the thigh (femur) to the pelvis unfavorable due to the lack of congruence between the joint partners

Coxitis fugax is also known as hip rhinitis and is an inflammation of the child's hip joint. Coxitis fugax usually heals without consequences under appropriate therapy.
You can find more information under our topic: Coxitis fugax.
Epiphysiolysis capitis femoris is a detachment and slippage of the head of the femoral neck in the growth plate from the femoral neck, usually in early puberty.

Who am I?
My name is dr. Nicolas Gumpert. I am a specialist in orthopedics and the founder of .
Various television programs and print media report regularly about my work. On HR television you can see me every 6 weeks live on "Hallo Hessen".
But now enough is indicated ;-)
The hip joint is one of the joints that are exposed to the greatest stress.
The treatment of the hip (e.g. hip arthrosis, hip impingement, etc.) therefore requires a lot of experience.
I treat all hip diseases with a focus on conservative methods.
The aim of any treatment is treatment without surgery.
Which therapy achieves the best results in the long term can only be determined after looking at all of the information (Examination, X-ray, ultrasound, MRI, etc.) be assessed.

Trochanteric bursitis is inflammation of the bursae of the hip. This lies between the gluteal muscles and the thigh bone.

Most of the time, after the bursa, the inflammation also reaches the periosteum at this point. For more information on this topic, see: Inflammation of the periosteum of the hip
Tendonitis in the hip is inflammation of the connective tissue connection between a muscle and the bone, also known as a tendon.

Tendinitis calcarea is an inflammatory reaction as a result of calcium deposits in the tendons of the hip muscles.
For more information on this condition, see: Calcular tendinitis of the hip
The term "hip joint osteoarthritis" (= coxarthrosis or also coxarthrosis) includes all degenerative diseases in the area of the hip joint caused by illness (e.g. congenital disorder of the functional unit femoral head - acetabulum or circulatory or metabolic disorders, ...), accident (e.g. fracture of the femoral neck ) or wear and tear.
$config[ads_text4] not foundCommon to all causal diseases is the increasing destruction of the joint cartilage, which ultimately also affects joint structures (joint capsule, bones) and the associated muscles.

Femoral head necrosis is understood to mean all acquired diseases of the femoral head which, due to ischemia (insufficient blood flow to the femoral head), lead to a different size, mostly partial death of the femoral head and which in their final stage can turn into coxarthrosis (hip joint arthrosis).
For more information, visit: Femoral head necrosis
If the cartilage is damaged in the hip, the cartilage that is found in the hip joint and ensures painless movement is damaged.
You can find more information about this condition here: Cartilage damage to the hip
In the case of a femoral neck fracture / femoral neck fracture, the upper end of the thigh bone (femur) breaks just below the head of the thigh (femoral head), usually due to a fall on the side of the hip.
For more information, visit: Femoral Neck Fracture and Femoral Neck Fracture
A fracture of the acetabulum is understood to mean the fracture of the acetabulum. This forms the socket for the hip joint, in which the femur moves.
