Hip Pain Treatment in Bursa

"My hip hurts" can point to three different places, and which one it is changes the whole direction of treatment. Pain felt in the groin usually comes from the hip joint itself. Pain on the outer side that worsens when lying on it is most often tendon-related. Pain deep in the buttock may come from the lower back or from the deep hip muscles. In Bursa Nilüfer, Fzt. Bilal Kara starts with an assessment whose first job is to separate these three.

When is it needed?

  • The pelvis dropping while on a single leg during running
  • Side-hip pain after training
  • A complaint increasing with running distance
  • A noticeable extra-load sensation on the knee
  • Pain becoming pronounced on an incline or at fast pace

What we do

  • Measuring pelvic control on a single leg
  • Targeted strengthening of the hip abductor muscles
  • Gradually adjusting running distance, surface and incline
  • Opening up volume as hip strength reaches a certain level
  • Regular re-measurement of pelvic control

Hip Pain in Bursa Nilüfer

Fzt. Bilal Kara provides one-to-one care for hip pain at the clinic in Bursa Nilüfer — in Fethiye Mahallesi, on Kelebek Sokak, at a central point of Nilüfer, opposite the Fethiye covered market.

It is a short trip by car or public transport from İhsaniye, Odunluk, Balat, Özlüce, Ataevler, 23 Nisan and the surrounding areas. Every session is one-to-one, assessment-based and tailored to you.

If your pelvis drops on a single leg

In running and single-leg-loading sports, the most common ground for hip pain is inadequacy in the side hip muscles that keep the pelvis level. When these muscles fatigue, the pelvis dips slightly with every step; the load piles up on the side tendons and on the knee.

Fzt. Bilal Kara starts by measuring pelvic control on a single leg and ties the programme to that measurement. Running isn't stopped entirely; distance, surface and incline are adjusted, and volume is opened up as hip abductor strength reaches a certain level.

Why does a dropping pelvis cause hip pain?

In running and single-leg-loading sports, the most common ground for hip pain is inadequacy in the side hip muscles that keep the pelvis level. When these muscles fatigue, the pelvis dips slightly with every step; the load piles up on the side tendons and on the knee.

Do you need to stop running?

No. Fzt. Bilal Kara starts by measuring pelvic control on a single leg and ties the programme to that measurement. Running isn't stopped entirely; distance, surface and incline are adjusted, and volume is opened up as hip abductor strength reaches a certain level.

How is progress tracked?

Single-leg pelvic control is re-measured at regular intervals; running volume is gradually increased based on that measurement.

Frequently asked questions

Will my hip pain resolve without stopping running?

In most cases yes; running continues while distance, surface and incline are adjusted, and volume is opened up as hip strength increases.

How is pelvic control tested?

Standing on one leg, whether the pelvis stays level is observed; it's a simple but informative test.

Which exercises strengthen the hip abductor?

It's determined individually; single-leg stabilisation and side-loading movements are usually at the centre of the programme.
