Osteoarthritis of the hip joint - causes, symptoms and treatment options<\/span><\/h2>\n

Osteoarthritis of the hip joint, known as Coxarthrosis<\/strong>is a degenerative joint disease that affects the hip joint. This form of Osteoarthritis<\/strong><\/a> is one of the most common joint diseases and occurs mainly in older people, but can also affect younger adults.<\/p>\n

What is hip osteoarthritis?<\/h2>\n

The hip joint is composed of the hip socket (part of the hip bone) and the hip head (part of the thigh bone). In a healthy joint, a thick layer of cartilage protects the joint surfaces and acts as shock absorbers and lubricants. This layer allows for pain-free and smooth movements of the hip joint. However, when the cartilage becomes thinner and worn out, it is referred to as hip osteoarthritis. The first cracks and gaps in the cartilage are early signs of this condition.<\/p>\n
