Although it is a very well supported structure, hip pain can occur and is often felt either deep in the groin, the buttock, the outer hip region or even down the leg to the knee or sometimes to the lower leg. Pain can start from a trauma like a fall upsetting the cartilage or local soft tissues or through systemic changes from various forms of arthritis \/ inflammatory reactions. It may simply be due to repetitive postures and activities at home or at work that gradually lead to increased sensitivity of tissue or due to long-term biomechanical issues (angles of movement and subsequent changes of forces on tissue).<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span
