Hip pain while walking can be caused by arthritis, bursitis, tendon irritation, muscle weakness, hip impingement, or abnormal movement patterns. In some cases, pain may actually originate in the lower back and be felt in the hip area. A physical therapist can evaluate your gait, strength, flexibility, and joint mobility to identify factors contributing to your symptoms and develop a treatment plan that addresses the root cause.
