Chronic Hip Pain
Hip pain can result from various factors, including osteoarthritis, which causes inflammation in the hip joint, leading to pain and stiffness. Another common cause is hip bursitis, where inflammation occurs in the fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that cushion the hip joint, with the trochanteric bursa often being the most affected. Additionally, some individuals experience persistent or chronic pain after a hip replacement.
Symptoms of Hip Osteoarthritis
Pain in the hip joint, groin, thigh, or buttocks
Stiffness or reduced range of motion in the hip
Pain that worsens with activity or prolonged sitting
Limping or difficulty walking
Clicking, popping, or grinding sensations in the hip
Chronic pain after hip replacement surgery
Traditional treatments such as medication, injections and physical therapy not helping
A Non-Surgical Treatment for Chronic Hip Pain
What is Hip Embolization?
Hip Embolization is a minimally invasive procedure performed under twilight sedation, meaning you will be relaxed but awake and able to go home the same day. The procedure usually lasts between one and two hours. Our skilled doctors will insert a small catheter, which is a thin, flexible tube, into the blood vessel in your wrist. Under X-ray guidance, the physician will guide the catheter to the abnormal arteries that supply blood to the hip. Tiny particles will then be injected through the catheter to normalize the blood flow to the inflamed tissue thus reducing inflammation and pain.

“Highly skilled physicians providing a much needed alternative to treatment of common ailments that are still being treated with very invasive and risky procedures. I have been sending my patients with enlarged prostates with obstructive symptoms and the results have been very satisfying with no negative side effects or serious complications. Results are very comparable to surgical outcomes without the risks.”
