The hip is an important body part for ensuring a comfortable lifestyle. A healthy hip joint enables pain-free walking, running, squatting, and turning. The cartilage, muscles, and tendons of the hip work together to provide the mobility and function required for daily activities.<\/span><\/p>\nInjuries to the hip are among the most difficult injuries to recover from. When you fracture or injure your hip, you may experience lifelong difficulties and pain. A fractured hip can limit mobility and agility and lead to chronic pain and arthritis. Rehabilitation following a hip injury can be excruciatingly painful, laboriously lengthy, and financially burdensome.<\/span><\/p>\nIf you or a member of your family has suffered a hip injury, we are here to help. Our hip injury attorneys in Clifton NJ are dedicated to assisting victims in obtaining compensation. Contact our personal injury law office as soon as possible so we can discuss your case!<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n

You can do that with the help of our Clifton NJ hip injury attorney.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nWhat are the Common Complications Related to Hip Injuries?<\/b><\/h2>\n
A forceful twisting motion, a direct impact on the pelvis, or a compression motion on the pelvis are common contributors to hip injuries. The following are some of the possible consequences of hip injuries.<\/span><\/p>\nHip Fractures<\/b><\/h3>\n
The most common hip-related injury is a fracture of the actual hip socket or another component of the joint. Hip fractures come in a variety of forms. There are three main types of hip fractures, and each presents unique challenges for rehabilitation and potential complications:<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Femoral Neck Fractures<\/b> – The most common type of severe hip injury is a femoral neck fracture. The femoral neck, which is located near the hip joint, is the weakest portion of the hip bone and one of the most trauma-sensitive areas.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Intertrochanteric Hip Fractures<\/b> – An intertrochanteric fracture of the hip occurs lower on the bone. Although intertrochanteric hip fractures are less prevalent than femoral neck fractures, they may present more treatment and rehabilitation challenges.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Intracapsular Hip Fractures <\/b>– Intracapsular hip fractures are the most serious and difficult-to-treat type of hip injury. These injuries include a hip ball-and-socket joint fracture. In addition to immediate medical care, long-term rehabilitation is essential for accident victims’ optimal recovery.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Bursitis<\/b><\/h3>\n
Bursitis is a common injury caused by blunt force trauma. It is characterized by painful inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs. It takes time to manifest after being struck and is difficult to detect.<\/span><\/p>\nGluteus Medius Tears<\/b><\/h3>\n
A Gluteus Medius tear, also known as a hip rotator cuff tear, occurs when the gluteus medius muscle is subjected to significant tension, resulting in a partial or complete rupture of the muscle. This is the primary muscle responsible for keeping the pelvis level during walking and lower-body movement. It stabilizes the hip joint and facilitates lateral hip mobility.<\/span><\/p>\nLabral Tears\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n
Labrum is the fibrocartilage ring that surrounds the hip joint. To protect the joint, it deepens the socket, seals the joint, and reduces the pressures delivered to the joint. A torn labrum can cause pain in the groin, hip side, or front of the hip. Typically, walking, rotation, and impact exercises like running aggravate pain. The discomfort can occur at any time of day or night and is frequently accompanied by locking, catching, or clicking.<\/span><\/p>\nAvascular Necrosis<\/b><\/h3>\n
Avascular necrosis is cell death caused by inadequate blood flow to the bones. In the absence of adequate blood flow, the tissue dies and the bone may collapse. If the fractured bone is near a joint, the joint may also collapse. Avascular necrosis can affect any bone, but statistically, the ends of long bones such as the upper leg at the hip, are at a greater risk.<\/span><\/p>\nHip injuries can be more painful than other accident-related injuries and can have a significant impact on the quality of life of the accident victim. Hip injuries frequently incur substantial medical expenses, and the treatment process for patients with hip injuries can be lengthy and challenging.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nIf you or a loved one has sustained a hip injury as a result of the carelessness or negligence of others, please contact our personal injury law firm immediately. Retain our Clifton NJ hip injury attorney for legal counsel and to obtain the compensation you deserve.<\/span><\/p>\nWho is Responsible for a Hip Injury?<\/b><\/h2>\n
Responsibility for a hip injury is contingent upon numerous factors. The simplest way to determine who is responsible for a hip injury is to determine who caused the incident that resulted in the injury.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nIf a reckless driver using a cell phone causes a collision with a pedestrian, they would likely be held liable for the victim’s hip injuries. Similarly, if a defective product causes a hip injury, the product’s manufacturer or designer could be held liable under product liability law. Below are just a few of the many parties who can be liable for your hip injury:<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Negligent driver\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
- Property owners<\/span><\/li>\n
- Product manufacturer\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
- Maintenance provider\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n

For victims to be sure they receive a fair settlement for their damages, outlining this proof is essential.<\/span><\/p>\nTo better determine your liabilities, take a closer look at the following elements of negligence that you and your Clifton NJ hip injury attorney need to establish:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n- The defendant must have owed the plaintiff a <\/span>duty of care<\/b><\/li>\n
- The defendant must have <\/span>breached the duty of care<\/b><\/li>\n
- The breach must have been the direct cause of the <\/span>plaintiff’s injury<\/b><\/li>\n
