Hip injection plus physical therapy for mild hip problems
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of a steroid and lubricant injection into the hip joint plus physical therapy to treat mild hip arthritis or related issues like a labral tear. It aims to see if this approach can reduce pain and improve function without surgery.
