Do you wince when you bend down to tie your shoes?
Does climbing stairs now feel more like a workout than a simple movement?
Is morning stiffness around your hip area becoming a daily ritual before your coffee even kicks in?
If so, you’re not alone.
Hip pain isn’t just an issue for seniors anymore. More and more active adults between the ages of 35–60 are noticing early signs of hip wear and tear , often mistaking it for back pain, sciatica, or just “getting older.”
But what if that discomfort was actually your body sending you a message — one worth paying attention to?
Let’s explore the most common causes of hip pain , how to tell if it’s something serious, and what you can do about it — both at home and with professional help.
Why More Active Adults Are Feeling Hip Pain
Contrary to popular belief, hip pain doesn’t only affect the elderly. In fact, many people in their 30s, 40s, and 50s are starting to experience joint discomfort earlier than expected .
Why?
Here are some reasons:
- Years of high-impact exercise (running, HIIT, CrossFit)
- Prolonged sitting at work or home
- Muscle imbalances from uneven training routines
- Early arthritis development
- Tight hip flexors or poor posture
The good news? Understanding what’s going on gives you the power to slow or even reverse the damage — without giving up your active lifestyle.
