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

Dr. Finkelstein e is very professional and direct about what your injury is.  I have been very impressed with his knowledge and efficient run office. Although I hope to not need him after this, He will be my go to for back and neck issues. I recommend him 100%.

I am a previous patient of Dr. Bhole. I had a condition called tarsal coalition, resulting in ankle instability and constant pain, often agitated by walking. Not only did Dr. Bhole explain the condition in a way I understood, he demonstrated total control of the situation. He performed surgery on both ankles, and I had no complications and received exemplary post-operative care from Dr. Bhole and his team. Now, I am living pain-free and I have my life back. I recommend Dr. Bhole to anyone.

Dr. Quisling is simply the best! He has treated myself and my family and we love him! He and his assistant, Heather, have been together for a while and they simply amaze me! They work so well together to make sure every patient feels cared for and apart of their family. There is no one I would trust with my healthcare than Dr. Q!

I had hip replacement surgery on 1/2/19 and walked with minimal assistance of a cane on 1/17/19. I found Dr. Claps and staff to be professional and efficient. My questions were always answered and explanations given for medications and procedures to be preformed. Dr. Claps called personally before and after surgery. I could not have chosen a better surgeon for my procedure. I also found other staff at Resurgens to be friendly and helpful.

I'm so sad to hear this news!! Dr. C was the best. Deepest sympathies to her family.

My heart is broken to hear this. Dr. C was amazing and will be greatly missed

Dr. McBride is calm and explains everything clearly. I was upset about my wrist fracture but confident that he could fix my wrist. Surgery went well. Healing has been right on schedule. I would highly recommend him.

It was a good visit. I got a steroid shot in the hip. He was informative and seemed to care about the problem. I will visit him again if needed. I would recommend him to others.

Very professional and friendly staff! Brand new building. Doctor Claps is very caring and accommodating. Will return for all my orthopedic needs.

Dr. Koch demonstrates superb skill as a physician/surgeon. Presents warmth caring manner, & personal connection with his patients. Patient of his for a number of years, I've always been extremely grateful for his medical expertise. Performed emergency surgery on me when nerves in my spine were crushed. Excellent surgery.
