Specialist hip clinic in Newcastle-upon-Tyne
The North East Hip Clinic provides comprehensive care for the full spectrum of hip problems. We provide expertise for young adults with hip pain.
The cause of hip pain can range from sports injuries, femoroacetabular impingement, dysplasia, soft tissue inflammation or arthritis. Worn, painful or loose joint replacements can be assessed, and if appropropriate revised (re-done).
The team will perform a thorough assessment to understand why you have pain, the nature of problems and extent of damage.
This will involve investigations that would help reach the diagnosis and typically include X-rays and possibly, MRI scan, CT scan or ultrasound scan depending on the suspected problem. The X-rays would be analysed by expert musculoskeletal radiologists.
Treatment options will be discussed and tailored to the requirements of individual patients.
The conventional treatment for these is arthroscopic labral repair, acetabular rim recession for pincer lesions and femoral osteochondroplasty for femoral cam lesions
The benefits of arthroscopic treatment include a minimally invasive procedure with a subsequent decrease in rehabilitation time.
