Hip Pain Palma de Mallorca
Hip pain and osteoarthritis treatment in Palma de Mallorca. PRP, cryotherapy, injections. German-trained specialist. Book appointment now.
Diagnosing hip pain includes a thorough mobility examination, specific provocation tests and imaging. X-rays reveal joint space narrowing and bone changes in osteoarthritis.
MRI detects labral tears, bursitis and early cartilage damage. DIERS 4D gait analysis identifies biomechanical imbalances contributing to hip pain. We also assess the lumbar spine to rule out referred pain.
Our goal is to delay or avoid hip replacement for as long as possible. Many patients with hip osteoarthritis respond well to conservative treatments.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) stimulates cartilage regeneration and reduces inflammation in the hip joint. Hyaluronic acid injections improve joint lubrication and reduce pain.
Cryotherapy at -110°C provides rapid pain relief and reduces inflammation. Targeted physiotherapy strengthens the muscles around the hip, improving stability and function.
Hip Specialist in Palma de Mallorca
Hip osteoarthritis is one of the most common orthopaedic conditions, particularly with increasing age. At our practice in Palma we offer advanced conservative treatments to manage hip pain effectively and delay the need for surgery.
Common Hip Conditions
- Hip osteoarthritis (coxarthrosis): Progressive cartilage degeneration
- Trochanteric bursitis: Inflammation of the outer hip bursa
- Labral tears: Damage to the cartilage ring around the hip socket
- Hip impingement (FAI): Femoroacetabular impingement causing restricted motion
- Tendinitis: Inflammation of the hip flexor or gluteal tendons
- Referred pain: Pain originating from the lumbar spine
PRP: Regenerating Hip Cartilage
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is our primary regenerative treatment for hip osteoarthritis. Growth factors from your own blood are injected into the joint under ultrasound guidance, stimulating cartilage repair and reducing inflammation. Many patients experience meaningful improvement that lasts months.
Cryotherapy for Hip Inflammation
Whole-body cryotherapy at -110°C is particularly beneficial for hip patients. The extreme cold reduces systemic inflammation, alleviates pain and improves joint mobility. It is an ideal complement to PRP therapy and physiotherapy.
Biomechanical Assessment
As a qualified sports scientist (Diplom-Sportlehrer), Dr. Diedrich understands the biomechanics of the hip in detail. DIERS 4D gait analysis identifies abnormal movement patterns, pelvic tilts and leg-length discrepancies that contribute to hip wear. Correcting these factors is essential for long-term outcomes.
Hip Pain in Runners and Cyclists
Hip problems are common among runners and cyclists in Mallorca. Overuse, poor biomechanics and inadequate recovery all contribute. We provide sport-specific rehabilitation and prevention strategies.
