Understanding Hip Anatomy

The foundation of your mobility lies in the hip joint, the largest ball-and-socket joint in the body. Imagine a smooth, rounded ball (femoral head) at the top of your thigh bone (femur) fitting snugly into a cup-like socket (acetabulum) in your pelvis. This simple design allows for a wide range of motion, from walking to jumping. But the hip is more than just connecting bones: Powerful muscles surround the joint, providing strength and control for everyday movement. Understanding the hip's structure empowers you to describe your hip pain to your doctor better, and work together to find the right treatment for you.


What Causes Hip Pain?

Due to the hip's complexity, hip pain can originate in many different parts of the joint. Common hip conditions include arthritis, injuries from overuse or accidents, and bursitis, the inflammation of fluid sacs cushioning the joint.

Muscle strains, tendonitis, and bone abnormalities can also contribute to hip pain. If you're experiencing hip pain, our Atlanta hip specialists at Resurgens Orthopaedics can help pinpoint the cause and create a personalized treatment plan.

Patients Trust Our Atlanta Hip Doctors

I had a great Experience over the last 6 months. Everyone from front to back, from the The secretary's when you walked in the door all the way to the surgeon. The surgeon explained everything in a way I could understand. And the nurses were reassuring threw out the whole time.

I have been going to Dr. Thomas Ross over 10 years with shoulder, hip & knee problems. He did a total shoulder replacement on me 5 years and everything is fine. He never makes you feel like he is rushing you in & out ..... he listens ... he give you time to ask questions and answers them so you understand what is going on ... he is patient , friendly and very kind. He is wonderful and so is all his staff!

Absolutely a phenomenal professional and surgeon. Never seems like he is in a hurry during visits or follow ups. Surgery on severed bicep tendon turned out better than I wouldve ever expected. The support staff for Dr. Patel including Jennifer Utshundi, Arifa Khan, and Erin Mingledorff PA make these visits like visiting family or friends.

Dr C exemplified beauty inside and out. She was a beautiful soul who loved her family, her patients and all the people who worked for and with her. It's so hard to accept but God knows best. May her beautiful soul rest in eternal peace and may God continue to keep and bless her family.

Dr. Albert is the best; playing golf, walking 5 miles a day in 6 weeks..one word "Great"

THE ULTIMATE PEACE OF MIND! After becoming concerned about swelling in my injured hand, I decided to follow up with Dr. Mowbray (hand specialist), at Resurgens. I was able to get an immediate "same day" appointment. When I arrived, I had already downloaded and completed the necessary paperwork so I had a very short wait. Dr. Mowbray has a very easy manner about him, does a great job of educating about wound care and is very thorough. X-rays were taken to determine the full extent of the injury, an additional stitch was removed to relieve pressure, my meds were adjusted, I received specific instruction on hand exercises and I was given a splint to provide additional support. Later that night, I noticed a significant decrease in the swelling while the mobility in my fingers had significantly increased. YES! I was elated because this means that the healing process is on target and I will likely avoid further intervention. The best decision I could have made was to follow up as soon as possible. During my entire visit, the staff in this office was very professional, pleasant and efficient. I highly recommend Dr. Mowbray and his staff if you are ever in need of a hand and arm specialist.

Dr. Kao is fantastic! After I had a freak fall where I broke my hip, I scheduled an appointment immediately. Dr. Kao was very positive, listened intently, told me my options, and made sure I understood everything. She performed surgery and visited me in the hospital every day. Her care and follow-up are exemplary. I truly believe that I have mended so well because of her expertise. I highly recommend her.

I LOVE DR MORRIS ! He listened to me, he helped me , he is super kind and has a heart of gold! I had Knee surgery with him just this week and it went awesome! Highly recommended! Awesome Doctor!

Very professional place. They actually treat you like a human, not a dollar sign. Very glad I made the choice to see Dr. Perez and then Kenin in Physical Therapy, very nice and easy to talk to.

Very knowledgeable and gifted in what he does.Treats patients like a human being not a number (excellence bedside manner.) He listed to what you are saying and orders the necessary tests and records and sits down with you.
