Your hip is one of the largest joints in the body. It is a ball-and-socket joint, which means it should move in all directions – hopefully without any pain. As a major weight-bearing joint in the body, the hip provides significant mobility and support. Weight-bearing stresses on the hip during walking are approximately 5 times your body weight.
The hips complex anatomy includes:
2 bones
17 main muscles
4 ligaments
Tendons
Blood vessels, nerves and soft tissue
