Hip orthosis AM-SB/1RE DUAL

articulated

The hip is the largest “ball-and-socket” joint in the body. It is held together by ligaments, tendons, and a joint capsule. The hip joint is created by femoral head (ball) and acetabulum (socket). They are cover by smooth articular cartilage. It provides smooth and painless movement. The labrum creates a seal of the hip joint and keeps a natural fluid called synovial fluid inside the hip joint. Hip dysplasia means that the hip joint is the wrong shape, or that the hip socket is not in the correct position to completely cover and support the femoral head. It causes painful hip instability and asymmetric movements. The first sign of hip dysplasia in an adolescent or young adult are typically hip pain and a limp. In rare cases, clicking and popping may be the presenting sign. In medicine we use a number of different terms for hip dysplasia depending on severity and time of occurrence. These names include1: Hip Dysplasia Developmental Dislocation of the Hip (DDH) Hip Dislocation Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) Acetabular Dysplasia Congenital Dislocation of the Hip (CDH) Non-treated hip dysplasia may causes advanced hip deformations and disability!
