Hip Tendinopathy/Tendonitis:
Hip tendinopathies, often caused by the overloading of tendons around the hip due to poor biomechanics during repeated movements, present as initial pain at the start of an activity that eases as the hip warms up, followed by pain a few hours post-activity once the area cools down. The treatment for hip tendinopathy varies with the stage of the injury, and a Physiotherapist can assess your condition to develop a personalized rehab plan. If you’re experiencing hip pain, our recovery rehab Physiotherapist can guide you through effective treatments.

Hip Bursitis:
Hip bursitis involves inflammation of the hip bursa, typically triggered by repetitive irritation. This condition is often linked to overuse or muscle weakness around the hip, resulting in increased pressure on the bursa. Pain from bursitis is usually sharp and exacerbated by joint use, though it may also ache when the joint is at rest or during the night. If you have hip bursitis, our Physiotherapists in Westmead can offer treatments to alleviate pain, recommend activity modifications, and create a specific exercise program to strengthen the affected muscles, reducing hip pain.
