Hip Soft Tissue Conditions

The hip soft tissue group includes greater trochanteric bursitis (lateral hip pain), iliopsoas tendinitis/bursitis (anterior hip/groin), and labral tears — which are increasingly recognised as a significant source of hip pain in active adults.

Labral tears are often associated with FAI, DDH, or trauma. Ultrasound-guided injection is highly effective for bursitis; arthroscopic labral repair restores the hip's natural shock-absorbing seal.

Key Facts
  • Greater trochanteric bursitis causes lateral hip pain, worse lying on the affected side
  • Iliopsoas "snapping hip" is a common complaint in dancers and runners
  • Labral tears cause groin pain and "catching" sensation in the hip
  • MRI arthrography is the gold standard for labral tear diagnosis
Treatment Options

Targeted Treatment for Hip Soft Tissue

01

Physiotherapy

Hip abductor and external rotator strengthening, biomechanical correction, and load management effectively treat bursitis and tendinitis.

02

Ultrasound-Guided Injection

Corticosteroid or PRP injection into the bursa or tendon sheath — guided by real-time ultrasound for precise delivery.

03

Shockwave Therapy

Extracorporeal shockwave therapy for calcific tendinitis and chronic bursitis — effective in 60–70% of cases.

04

Arthroscopic Labral Repair

Keyhole suture anchor repair of the torn labrum — combined with FAI correction if an underlying bony cause is identified.
