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. Joseph has provided outstanding support to me for almost five years now...Unfortunately I've experienced some medical issues in recent years which has required numerous physicians and surgeons and all Dr's are not the same. I have so much respect for him. He's truly a professional and expert in his field. Dr. Joseph show's compassion and cares about his patients. He and his staff (Jennifer and Angie) are the best in the business trust me!

I am a health care worker working in a top 5 hospital in the US. The healthcare team is not comparable to the staff I encountered today. Dr. T. Baker was so empathetic, took the time to give me the information necessary to facilitate my care. I am terrified of needles (yes healthcare worker); I did not even know when my shot was completed. Definitely will return to this facility for my follow up care.

Dr. Bush has great bed side manner and listened to me. I have recommended Dr. Bush to all my family and friends.

Great Doctor and staff!

I'm a 58 year old female who required surgery to repair labrum and bicep this year. I'm now 4 1/2 months post surgery and 1 month post physical therapy and am incredibly pleased with the outcome. Dr. Chen and his staff were extremely professional and caring. He took time to explain in detail the surgery and necessary follow-up. He did an excellent job and I'm very grateful!

The Staff at Resurgens orthopaedics are the best and the care is excellent. Dr David Goodman is a very good, friendly caring and compassionate. I even received a call from my Doctor personally and the nursing Staff after my surgery. The Fayelvilke team and particularly the surgical center team in Morrow are just exceptionally wonderful. I love u guys. Keep up the good work and the excellent care.

Simply, a no nonsense medical professional whose diagnosis is based on careful observation of your specific issue. Surgery only if absolutely necessary. Dr. Wertheim treated me for both a knee and elbow issue. Thank you.

Dr. Dennis is the best! She is very professional & knows her area. She seems to enjoy her job and is happy to see me. She listens! She hears and acts based on what she hears. Most of all it seems like she feels my pain with me (I know...she doesn't but she is very compassionate). I found out I was actually driving farther than necessary but that's okay by me!

Wonderful staff and service. I was scared but they helped me to understand the entire process and prepared me for the road ahead in a way that I could understand and prepare for myself.

Dr. Tan made me feel comfortable with her confidence before our procedure. She's great!! I Love the end result. Highly recommended.
