Treatment Options for Hip Pain
From non-surgical treatment options to minimally invasive surgical techniques such as hip arthroscopy, the physicians at the Hinsdale Orthopaedics Hip Center take a multi-disciplined approach to expertly treat the broad range of hip conditions that can occur at any stage of life. Once the proper diagnosis has been made, you and your physician will decide the best course of treatment.
Non-Surgical Treatment
Many hip problems may be treatable without surgery. The Hip Center at Hinsdale Orthopaedics maintains a philosophy that surgery should be reserved as a last resort when all other measures have proven unsuccessful in returning patients to an active lifestyle. Fortunately, there are several non-surgical treatment options to help reduce hip pain such as exercise and weight management, physical therapy and Cortisone treatments. Read more
Hip Arthroscopy
Surgeons at the Hip Center of Hinsdale Orthopaedics are leading the way in this new and cutting edge area of orthopaedic surgery. Hip Arthroscopy is far less invasive and performed as an outpatient procedure, which allows the patient to return home the same day. These procedures quickly bring athletes back to their sport, allow workers to return to work and often prevent or delay the need for joint replacement. Read more
Hip Resurfacing
The key benefit in a hip resurfacing procedure is that more of your healthy bone is kept intact as the damaged area is simply resurfaced, not fully removed. The surgeons at the Hinsdale Orthopaedics Hip Center have extensive experience with this innovative alternative to traditional hip replacement. Read more
Hip Replacement
Hip joint replacement surgery is one of the most successful treatments for disabling hip arthritis, as it can help to relieve pain, increase motion and help you get back to enjoying normal, everyday activities. Since its inception nearly 40 years ago, there have been tremendous advances made in the procedure. Surgeons from the Hinsdale Orthopaedics total joint team now perform the majority of these procedures using modern minimal-incision techniques. Read more
Hip Osteotomy
Hip Osteotomy is used for patients with mechanical abnormalities of the hip. The surgeons at the Hinsdale Orthopaedics Hip Center are experts in performing this procedure, which helps maintain the patient’s own joints for as long as possible, often delaying the need for replacement surgery for 10 to 20 years.
Surgery for Hip Fractures
A broken or fractured hip is a common injury and often may require surgery. The physicians at the Hinsdale Orthopaedics Hip Center will do a thorough evaluation to determine if an operation will be needed based on what bone is broken, where it is broken and whether the break is at risk (for staying where it is) once the bone fragments have been aligned.

PRP- Platelet-rich Plasma
PRP or Platelet-rich Plasma is an emerging treatment in a new health sector known as "Orthobiologics,” which follows the philosophy of merging new technology with the body’s natural ability to heal itself. The physicians at the Hinsdale Orthopaedics Hip Center are leading the way with this specialized process, by which the growth factors from a patient's own blood are injected into the site of inflammation to stimulate the healing process to decrease pain. Although more data is still needed, PRP may provide an alternative to surgery or to other types of injections. Read more
