Clinical reasoning before proceduresAssessment before treatmentNo treatment pressure
Assessment first
Hip pain can come from more than one place.
Pain in the groin, outside of the hip or buttock can arise from the hip joint, surrounding tendons or sometimes the lower back. The location alone does not confirm the diagnosis.
We consider movement, strength, walking, daily function and relevant health factors before recommending rehabilitation, imaging, injection consultation or specialist review.

Your pathway
Clear decisions at every stage.
Measure
Movement, strength, walking and functional tasks are reviewed.
Plan
We agree treatment priorities and explain whether imaging may be useful.
Restore
Rehabilitation develops strength and tolerance for everyday and sporting demands.

Diagnosis guides the pathway
Hip treatment is selected according to the likely diagnosis and functional limitation. Persistent severe joint symptoms may require imaging or an orthopaedic opinion rather than prolonged physiotherapy alone.
Common questions
Useful answers before you enquire.
Is hip pain always arthritis?+
No. Tendon problems, referred pain and other conditions can produce hip-region symptoms.
Do I need an X-ray?+
Not always. Imaging may be appropriate when significant joint pathology is suspected or when the result would change management.
Can physiotherapy help lateral hip pain?+
Yes. Load management and progressive strengthening are commonly used when the presentation fits a tendon-related lateral hip problem.
