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’ve had facet injections twice & medial branch blocks once by Dr. Cone-Sullivan. She is Excellent & deffinatly knows what she is doing! I would recommend her without question. The procedures went smoothly & quickly! I believe she & her staff have managed to find the right balance of professional & personable. This atmosphere helped make the procedures surprisingly easy.

Great doctor with great staff. Explained the cause of my injuries and options for treatment.

Dr. Bircoll replaced my right hip and had some complications. He got everyone on board and helped me at each turn. I trust Dr. Bircoll so much that he is now going to replace the left hip. His office staff also goes above and beyond to make sure you understand everything that is going on. I highly recommend Dr. BIRCOLL!

My husband has used Resurgens for several surgeries and we have always been very pleased. Friendly, caring nurses and doctors. We never feel like they have overbooked surgeries where we feel rushed. He just had total knee replacement and the nurses and doctors were great!

He has been very compassionate to my problem and listens very well. He answers questions so you can understand in layman's terms, I appreciate that very much. His staff is also very approachable and they don't act like you are bothering them, as I have been treated in other offices that I have been in. I would recommend Dr. Goodman to anyone needing an excellent orthopedic dr.

Outstanding!!! Had a pretty bad compound fracture on my leg. But I was so fortunate that Dr. Bruggers was available that Sunday morning to operate on my leg. No complications whatsoever. The next day, I was able to walk (with walker), dress and bathe myself. Didn't take any painkillers from the second day on. 2 weeks later, am able to walk short distances w/o crutches. Absolutely amazing. She's the best!!!

Dr. Miller is fabulous. I tore my meniscus and he did the surgery. Absolutely NO pain from day 1. I now get cortisone shots every 3 months. Very knowledgeable and has a great bedside manner. Love him!

Dr. Jacob Strong has treated me for a variety of conditions, over a period of 4 years, most recently, for a large synovial cyst on my spine, as a result of DDD. Over the course of numerous appointments and treatments, Dr. Strong has proven to be a totally dedicated, and thorough healer. I have come to know him well, have observed his caring and dedication in multiple office and surgery centers. Every other patient I have encountered through my experiences has shared my view...so very grateful.

I came to Dr. Dantuluri after almost two full years of frequent surgeries surrounding an extremely bad injury to my shoulder. I was in constant pain, and had almost no mobility. Dr. Dantuluri was extremely patient, and discussed all of my potential options in-depth before suggesting a best course of action. He made sure I was comfortable in the decision, and spoke about what my expectations should be in the future.Almost a year out from a total shoulder reconstruction, I have felt better than I have in years, and the care from Dr. Dantuluri has been exquisite. Everyone should be so lucky to have him as their caregiver.

I am writing to express my sincere thanks to Dr. Marly N. Dows-Martinez, M.D. for her technical expertise and compassionate patient care. As a former military pilot, I developed lower back pain and radiating pain that she correctly identified as Sciatica. She took the time to listen and evaluate my symptoms, then methodically progressed through the levels or remediation. As a result of her actions, the excruciating radiating pain down my thigh and legs have gone from a 10 plus to a 1-2 level. Well done and thank you so much.
