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

Amazing care. I went with a broken ankle two days ago and everyone was so kind and made me feel so cared for, I called that morning and they were able to fit me in on the same day. Carol the NP was excellent and so kind. I would recommend the facility to anyone experiencing a broken bone. I’m glad this is the place I went with.

Dr. Raut and his team are wonderful. He is a superb doctor with an excellent bedside manner.

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

Daftari performed 2 back surgeries for me. First he went through my stomach to straighten my spine and then the next week through my back to replace L4-S1 vertebrae’s and put all my hardware in. After 3 years of not being able to walk and being in the bed he saved my life! He checked on me so much in the hospital and he was so excited it was so successful. I had a high rate of being paralyzed if I did not get this surgery when I did. I wish I could somehow repay him for saving me!

The staff and Dr. Pines were wonderful. Took the time to listen and explain the issue to me and were very thorough. Excellent team!

I have been to this office twice Dr. Doug Widener and all the staff have been absolutely fantastic. Dr. Widener exceeded my expectations and figured out quickly my issues. I have a horrible fear of needles but he managed to relax me enough that it wasn’t so bad at all! Highly recommend this office and Dr. Widener and love that they have a physical therapy unit in the same office!

I have been visiting this office for over five years and the service I have received has always been outstanding. I have had a hip replacement and a knee replacement. The staff is courteous and friendly and the surgeons have done a good job for me. Highly recommend!

One of the most personable doctors I have ever met. Always makes sure we understand the procedure and shows xrays before/after so we have a full understanding. Would recommend to anyone.

Dr. Erroll Bailey is nothing short of a magaician. I was having trouble walking because of what my PCP said was gout. Dr. Bailey took x-rays and did a exam which he figured out I was suffering from turf toe. I went from totally miserable to being able to walk again. He and his staff did a great job and I am very thankful for them. I am back to playing sports and having a normal daily life. Thanks Dr. B!!!

Dr. Strong is very caring doctor. He pays attention and is very thorough. I like a doctor that has the bedside manner that he has which this doctor is not all about the money he's all about the patient. That's a rare find any more!! Highly highly recommend.
