Essentially a ball and socket joint, it allows movements in all three planes. A large part of the ball (head of the femur or thigh bone) is covered by the socket (acetabulum) which is part of the pelvis.<\/p>\n<p>The bone surfaces of the ball and socket are covered with articular cartilage, a smooth tissue that cushions the ends of the bones and enables them to move easily, almost without friction. A thin layer of soft tissue called synovial membrane surrounds the hip joint. In a healthy hip, this membrane makes a small amount of fluid that lubricates the cartilage further reducing the friction during hip movement.<\/p>\n<p>Stability of the joint is provided by the bony structure, as the socket encloses a good portion of the ball. Further stability is due to the strong bands of tissues called ligaments, which connect the thigh bone and the pelvis.<\/p>\n<p>The hip joint is essential for maintaining the erect posture of humans and allowing ambulation. Any painful condition of the hip, including arthritis, affects normal movements and adversely affects the quality of life.<\/p>\n<p>The narrow portion of the bone, adjacent to the ball, is called the neck as it is much narrower. This makes it weaker and prone to fractures especially in the elderly.<\/p>\n<p>A fracture of the neck of femur is difficult to treat as the healing of this part is poor due to various reasons. It may require hip replacement surgery.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-3 nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\"  style='background-color: #282828;background-position: left top;background-repeat: no-repeat;padding-top:100px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:90px;padding-left:0px;'><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row \"><div  class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion_builder_column_1_1 fusion-builder-column-4 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last fusion-column-no-min-height 1_1\"  style='margin-top:2%;margin-bottom:0px;'><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper\" style=\"padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;\"   data-bg-url=\"\"><style type=\"text\/css\"><\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><h3 class=\"title-heading-center\" style=\"margin:0;\">Request an appointment<\/h3><\/div><div role=\"form\" class=\"wpcf7\" id=\"wpcf7-f3145-o1\" lang=\"en-US\" dir=\"ltr\">\n<div class=\"screen-reader-response\" aria-live=\"polite\"><\/div>\n<form action=\"\/kneeclinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3251#wpcf7-f3145-o1\" method=\"post\" class=\"wpcf7-form\" novalidate=\"novalidate\">\n<div style=\"display: none;\">\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7\" value=\"3145\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_version\" value=\"5.1.9\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_locale\" value=\"en_US\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_unit_tag\" value=\"wpcf7-f3145-o1\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_container_post\" value=\"0\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap your-name\"><input type=\"text\" name=\"your-name\" value=\"\" size=\"40\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-text wpcf7-validates-as-required\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" placeholder=\"Name\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap your-email\"><input type=\"email\" name=\"your-email\" value=\"\" size=\"40\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-text wpcf7-email wpcf7-validates-as-required wpcf7-validates-as-email\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" placeholder=\"Email\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap enquiry\"><textarea name=\"enquiry\" cols=\"40\" rows=\"10\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-textarea wpcf7-validates-as-required\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" placeholder=\"A brief description of your enquiry\"><\/textarea><\/span><\/p>\n<p><input type=\"submit\" value=\"Send\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-submit\" \/> <\/p>\n<div class=\"fusion-alert alert custom alert-custom fusion-alert-center wpcf7-response-output wpcf7-display-none fusion-alert-capitalize alert-dismissable\" style=\"border-width:1px;\"><button type=\"button\" class=\"close toggle-alert\" data-dismiss=\"alert\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&times;<\/button><div class=\"fusion-alert-content-wrapper\"><span class=\"fusion-alert-content\"><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/form><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3251","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v14.2 -
