This is a lecture about causes of hip pain in children. It is mainly aimed to primary care physicains (pediatricians, family medicine, and emergency medicine). However, orthopedic surgeons will also find this lecture very useful to them. Other health care providers (nurse practioners, therapist, students) will also benefit from this lecture

Last week, I had a pediatric patient come in with fever, cough, and nasal congestion for one month.

The patient was placed on amoxicillin and finished the antibiotic course three days prior. Now, he’s coming in complaining with the inability to bear weight on his left hip.

There’s a broad differential for the child presenting with hip pain. Much of it can be narrowed down using the history and the age of the child.

I like to further break down the pain into four categories:
1. Inflammatory
2. Infectious
3. Orthopedic
4. Neoplastic

Today, I want to talk about hip pain in the pediatric patient!
