The hip joint is one of the largest joints in the body, connecting the lower extremities to the pelvis. Hip pain refers to any discomfort felt in or around the hip joint, and its reach often extends beyond that single joint: pain may radiate into the groin, thigh, outer legs, or even toward the knee. Because the hip bears body weight and supports nearly every movement we make, pain in this region tends to affect life in ways that go well beyond simple discomfort.
At Greater Austin Pain Center, our pain management specialists work to identify the root cause of each patient's hip pain and develop an individualized approach to care. Rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all treatment, our physicians focus on understanding your specific condition and what will work best for you.
The hip is built for both strength and flexibility, supporting flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and rotation. When pain disrupts any of these movements, the consequences ripple outward. Patients suffering from hip pain often find themselves limping or shifting their gait to compensate for discomfort, which can make conditions in the lower back, knees, and opposite hip progressively worse over time.
Common symptoms associated with hip conditions include:
Beyond the physical symptoms themselves, chronic hip pain often limits a person's ability to walk, drive, and exercise, making it harder to stay active and maintain overall quality of life. Many patients suffering from persistent hip discomfort describe a gradual withdrawal from the activities and family life they value most. Addressing these symptoms early can make a meaningful difference in long-term function and recovery.

Addressing these symptoms early can make a meaningful difference in long-term function and recovery.
Treatment options for hip pain vary depending on the root cause, severity, and how long a patient has been dealing with the condition. For mild acute injury involving muscles, tendons, or bursal sacs, conservative care approaches such as rest and activity modification are often recommended initially. When pain persists or stems from structural joint conditions like arthritis, more targeted interventional pain management options are typically considered.
At Greater Austin Pain Center's Kyle, TX clinic, our pain management specialists offer a range of in-house treatments designed to address the underlying sources of hip pain rather than simply manage symptoms. Our physicians take pride in providing the highest level of care, focusing on options that are most appropriate for each patient's specific condition and goals. Treatments that may be considered depending on diagnosis include:
Our care team takes a multidisciplinary approach, which means that alongside in-house interventional treatments, your personalized care plan may also include referrals for physical therapy, strengthening programs, medication management, or other coordinated services when clinically appropriate. Our physicians will explain every recommended option clearly before proceeding, and your care team will continue to evaluate your response and adjust the plan over time. The goal is to help you get back to the daily activities and quality of life that matter most to you.
For patients whose hip pain involves a nerve pain component, options such as Nerve Blocks or Spinal Cord Stimulators may also be considered as part of a broader treatment plan for chronic pain that has not responded to earlier interventions. The combination of approaches used will depend on the findings from your initial consultation and evaluation.
Getting started is easy. You can call our office at (512) 298-1645, reach out by email, or schedule online at your convenience. Our Kyle, TX clinic is conveniently located and accepts a broad range of insurance plans, so we recommend that you verify your coverage before your visit. Our friendly staff is glad to help you navigate insurance questions and answer any other questions you have before your first appointment.
At your consultation visit, one of our pain management physicians will conduct a thorough physical examination and review your medical history, symptoms, and any prior care you have received. Imaging such as X-rays may be used to help evaluate and identify the root cause of your hip pain and determine whether any additional conditions are contributing. Understanding your specific diagnosis is what allows our team to match you with the most appropriate treatment options and build a care plan that works for your life.
Based on your evaluation and diagnosis, your care team will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your condition, goals, and lifestyle. For many patients, this includes one or more of GAPC's in-house interventional treatments alongside coordinated referrals for physical therapy or medication management where appropriate. Your physician will explain the plan clearly so you understand every step and feel confident about your care journey before proceeding.
Hip pain, especially when rooted in arthritis or other chronic conditions, often requires ongoing management rather than a single intervention. Our team schedules follow-up visits to assess how you are responding to treatment, adjust the plan as needed, and provide support for long-term relief. Many patients return to our Kyle clinic for continued care as part of a sustained approach to managing chronic pain and improving their quality of life over time.

Hip pain can result from a variety of sources, including arthritis, bursitis, tendinitis, hip fractures, muscle or tendon strains, structural abnormalities, and nerve irritation. Conditions such as sciatica can also cause referred pain that feels as though it originates in the hip. The causes vary depending on a patient's age, activity level, and history of injury. A thorough evaluation by one of our pain management physicians helps identify the root cause so the most appropriate treatment can be selected.
Hip pain frequently limits a person's ability to walk comfortably, drive, climb stairs, and sleep on the affected side. Over time, many people suffering from chronic hip pain alter their gait to compensate, which can make back pain and knee pain worse. Reduced mobility associated with chronic hip pain can also affect overall health, family life, and quality of life in ways that go well beyond the hip joint itself.
Greater Austin Pain Center's Kyle, TX clinic offers several minimally invasive procedures for hip pain depending on each patient's condition and needs. These include X-ray guided joint injections to address inflammation, peripheral nerve stimulation, radiofrequency ablation, trigger point injections, and regenerative medicine options such as platelet rich plasma therapy. Our pain management specialists will discuss which options are most appropriate after a full consultation and evaluation.
While hip pain can affect people of any age, certain factors increase the likelihood of developing chronic pain in the hip. These include advancing age, a history of arthritis or hip injury, an inactive lifestyle that leads to reduced muscle strength, and carrying excess weight. Kyle, TX residents in physically demanding occupations or those with structural joint abnormalities may also be at elevated risk. Our providers can help you understand your specific risk factors during a consultation.
In many cases, the risk of developing hip pain can be reduced by maintaining a healthy weight, staying physically active, and strengthening the muscles of the lower extremities and back. Avoiding repetitive overuse and addressing injury promptly can also help prevent acute pain from becoming a longer-term chronic condition. That said, some causes of hip pain, such as degenerative arthritis, involve factors that are not fully preventable, and seeking care from experienced specialists early can make a real difference in outcomes.
