Nerve-targeted treatment for lateral hip pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests an experimental treatment that targets nerves around the hip to relieve pain on the outside of the hip. It may help people who have tried other treatments without enough relief.

This trial tests whether adding a steroid injection to a home exercise program helps people with long-term pain on the outside of the hip. It aims to find a better way to manage your pain and improve daily function.
This study tests a high-intensity laser treatment to reduce hip pain and improve function in people with greater trochanteric pain syndrome (pain on the outside of the hip). It may help if you've had hip pain for at least 3 months and haven't had recent injections or other conservative treatments.
This trial studies whether TENEX (a minimally invasive procedure) can reduce hip pain caused by greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS). It is for people who have tried non-surgical treatments for at least 6 months without enough relief, and who have confirmed GTPS on imaging (MRI or CT).
This study tests whether exercise and patient education can help people with long-term lateral hip pain (pain on the outside of the hip). If you've had hip pain for over 6 months and an MRI confirms the cause, you may be able to join.
This trial compares two treatments—shockwave therapy and conventional physical therapy—for long-lasting pain on the outside of the hip, often called trochanteric pain syndrome. It aims to find which option works better for people whose hip pain has persisted for months.
This trial tests whether dry needling (inserting thin needles into muscle) can improve hip muscle function and reduce pain in people with chronic hip pain called greater trochanteric pain syndrome. If you have had pain on the side of your hip for more than 3 months, this study may help find a new treatment option.
