Hip Pain / Gluteal Tendinopathy
Resolving Hip Pain and Improving Stability
Pain around the outer hip is commonly caused by gluteal tendinopathy — a condition where the gluteus medius and minimus tendons become irritated, often due to weakness or overload. This can cause pain when walking, climbing stairs, or lying on your side.
Common Symptoms
- Pain on the outside of the hip or thigh
- Discomfort when lying on the affected side
- Difficulty with stairs, hills, or prolonged standing
Typical Symptoms:
- Aching, burning, or shooting pain in the wrist or hand
- Numbness or tingling, especially at night
- Weakness or reduced grip strength
