Hip Pain

Our team of experts at Orthobiologics Associates has extensive experience when it comes to hip pain treatment without surgery. We specialize in Cell Therapy Ortho-Biologics for injuries and osteoarthritis, as well as Cell Therapy Ortho-Biologics for arthritis problems, including hip arthritis therapy. We helped establish the latest proven alternative therapy method to steroids and surgery in the industry: Cell Therapy Ortho-Biologics for hip joints and hip pain.*

Our same-day outpatient procedures are possible alternatives to hip replacement surgery and can help alleviate your hip pain by providing a unique approach to healing…not just covering symptoms.

Our regenerative procedures, such as Cell Therapy Ortho-Biologics for hip pain and innovative platelet rich plasma (PRP), help treat different kinds of musculoskeletal problems and their underlying conditions that cause pain.*

Our doctors use the patient’s stem cells derived from the patient’s own bone marrow. These highly concentrated stem cells are used to help repair, rebuild and strengthen the damaged tissue, with the procedures often serving as hip replacement alternatives.

Hip Pain Frequently Asked Questions

What can cause hip pain?

Acute or chronic hip pain can result from several things, the most common of which include injuries, tendinitis, impingement, pinched nerves, arthritis and bursitis. Pelvic floor problems, tissue necrosis and other issues can also cause hip pain.

When is medical attention necessary for hip pain?

If your hip pain is severe or lasts longer than a few days, you should schedule an evaluation with a medical professional. With a thorough medical exam, your provider can diagnose the underlying cause of your hip pain and determine whether non-surgical, regenerative therapies may be an effective treatment option.

What is PRP for hip pain and how does it work?

PRP is an abbreviation for platelet-rich plasma, a regenerative, growth-factor-rich substance derived from each patient’s blood. After injection directly into the hip joint, PRP can help stimulate and accelerate the body’s innate healing response. Over time, it also helps reduce inflammation and promotes progressive tissue regeneration.

How does regenerative medicine treat hip pain?

Regenerative hip therapy involves using each patient’s autologous cells and/or tissues — typically stem cells and/or platelet-rich plasma — to promote tissue regeneration and healing and improve functionality within the hip joint. Because these substances also help reduce inflammation associated with tissue damage and degeneration, they can alleviate hip pain in both the short and long term.

Can stem cell injections for hip pain help alleviate discomfort and improve mobility?

Yes. However, results depend on several factors, including the severity of each patient’s condition and their lifestyle habits. Because stem cells are injected directly into the hip joint where they naturally stimulate tissue repair and regeneration, many patients realize both pain relief and improvement in joint functionality.

What is the timeline for results with non-surgical hip pain treatment?

Most patients can expect to see results from non-surgical, regenerative treatments within a few weeks to a few months after undergoing their procedure. However, the timeline for both initial and full results depends largely on the severity of each patient’s condition, the type of procedure used and other lifestyle factors.

How long is the recovery process for non-surgical hip pain treatment?

Generally, recovery from non-surgical hip pain treatment requires far less time than recovery from surgical treatment options. While downtime and recovery depend heavily on the type of regenerative treatment used and the severity of each patient’s condition, most people resume their normal activities within a few days or weeks.

How does non-surgical hip pain treatment compare to surgery?

Non-surgical treatments for hip pain, such as PRP and stem cell injections, offer patients multiple advantages over surgical interventions. Not only do regenerative treatments typically require less downtime and a shorter healing period, but they also involve fewer side effects and risks.

Can non-surgical hip pain treatments be combined with other forms of therapy?

Yes, regenerative medicine for hips can be paired with other forms of therapy to help improve joint functionality and reduce discomfort. Physical therapy, medications and other types of treatment may also be helpful for improving mobility and managing pain.

Who is a candidate for minimally invasive hip pain treatment?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and stem cells for hip pain are generally considered safe and effective for a wide variety of patients. Unfortunately, individuals with advanced arthritis or severe joint damage may not be ideal candidates for regenerative treatments, but only a qualified practitioner can make that determination.

Can lifestyle changes help alleviate hip pain?

Yes. Reducing body weight, maintaining good posture, engaging in low-impact physical activity and avoiding movements that tend to exacerbate pain can help you manage acute or chronic hip discomfort.
