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. 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.

Dr Charles E. Claps is a top notch orthopedic surgeon! He replaced my left hip using the anterior approach. The next day I was released from the hospital, able to walk on my own although using a walker and cane for a few days as directed. I was off pain meds 5 days after surgery and walking two miles on my own with no hip pain! Dr Claps is a patient-focused physician; he kept me informed before, during and after the process. How many surgeons call their patient the evening before surgery?!

I was so lucky to have Dr. Scott That night of my accident at North Fulton Hospital. He did a great job on my broken Heep bone, back in 2001. Thank you Doctor for your expertise and devotion. You are one of a kind.

Dr. Traub is not only highly skilled in his profession, he is caring, compassionate and as nice as he is handsome:-) He provides detailed explanations during pre/post-operative visits/procedures. I had a large meniscus tear repaired. My speedy recovery not only shocked "me," but my family and friends, as well!! I only used crutches the day of surgery and the next. 2 weeks post-surgery, 2 visits to the PT, I regained full range of motion in my knee and was able to resume my 30 minute walks.

Keep looking for her smile to come around the corner every day đŸ˜¢. I will never forget you. Love and miss you Dr. C.

Dr. Hui has done surgery on both right and left knees. The total knee replacements was what I put off for years, but so very glad that I finally had the work done.

Highly Recommend! I have been to three different doctors all over Georgia, and was beginning to think I was going to have to live with the pain in my foot from an accident I was in years ago. Dr. Kowalchuk was knowledgeable, kind, and made me feel comfortable in the decision to get surgery to try and fix the pain. I can finally walk normally again and am so happy with my results.

Dr. Dantuluri is an extremely nice person who pinned my broken humeral head with a titanium pin which is a minimalist approach which preserves the blood supply to the humerus . It was all very efficiently taken care of. I have good range of motion 6 months later. His office staff are pleasant and helpful. I feel extremely lucky to have found Dr. Dantuluri who is so skilled in this procedure. Thank you!

I have used Dr. Miller twice in the past, and since he has a reputation as the best shoulder surgeon in North Atlanta, I scheduled my reverse shoulder replacement surgery with him. He has assembled a great team of specialists. I found them to be experienced, friendly, caring and very helpful. His PA, Pete, has been his side-kick for many years and his experience was obvious. My shoulder is now pain free. Would I do it again? My answer is yes.

I love Resurgens because they have excellent service.
