Not all hip pain is created equal—and location tells a story.

Pain in the groin or inner hip often points to joint problems like arthritis or labral tears. Pain on the outer hip or buttock usually means soft tissue issues like bursitis or tendonitis.

And here’s something surprising: sometimes hip pain is actually referred from the lower back.

If you're experiencing persistent discomfort, don't ignore it. Understanding the source is the first step toward relief.

🧟 Zombie walks are for Halloween—not your daily routine. Reclaim your stride with expert care.

From slips while hanging decorations to sore knees after chasing little trick-or-treaters, fall activities can put extra stress on your joints.

Luckily, most aches can be treated early with rest, physical therapy, or bracing before they turn into something more serious. And if surgery ever becomes the right choice, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.

This Halloween, don’t let pain haunt your holidays. Treat your joints with care—and call Alexander Orthopaedics if you need us. 🦴✨

There are a lot of myths about joint pain—and not all of them are true.

For example:
❌ Cracking your knuckles causes arthritis (False!)
❌ Joint pain is “just part of aging” (Not always—many causes are treatable!)
❌ If you’re in pain, surgery is your only option (Nope—conservative care works for many patients!)

At Alexander Orthopaedics, we want you to have the facts. Joint pain can often be managed with physical therapy, injections, lifestyle changes, and yes—sometimes surgery when necessary. The key is seeing a specialist to get the right diagnosis and treatment plan.

If you’re in an auto accident in Florida, here’s something most people don’t know: your Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance requires you to seek medical care within 14 days of the crash. If you don’t, you may lose eligibility for coverage—even if you later discover injuries like whiplash, back pain, or joint damage.

Seeing an orthopedic specialist early not only protects your health but also preserves your right to benefits.

Our team can evaluate you after an accident, document your injuries, and provide the treatment you need to heal. ❤️🩹
