Same-Day MVA Appointments Available — No Insurance Required | Lien-Based TreatmentHip in Merrillville, Indiana
Hip injuries from car accidents, workplace falls, and traumatic events can cause severe pain and long-term mobility limitations. Our orthopedic team at Merrillville Injury Care provides comprehensive hip injury evaluation and treatment in Merrillville, Indiana.
Common Traumatic Hip Injuries
Hip injuries we treat include hip fractures, labral tears, hip bursitis (trochanteric bursitis), hip flexor strains, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, and post-traumatic hip arthritis. Motor vehicle accidents can cause hip injuries from direct dashboard impact (dashboard injuries), seatbelt forces, or ejection. Workplace falls from height are another leading cause of traumatic hip injuries.
Diagnosis and Treatment
Our evaluation includes physical examination, digital X-ray, and MRI coordination to identify fractures, labral tears, and soft tissue damage. Treatment options include physical therapy, hip joint injections, PRP therapy, and hip arthroscopy at our onsite surgery center for labral repair and loose body removal. Severe fractures may require referral for surgical fixation or joint replacement.
