If you had recent trauma in your hips due to a car crash or an accident related to contact sports, you could also experience joint dislocation. Hip dislocation is easy to diagnose because the deformation of the articulation is clearly visible from the outside.

If you use prosthetic hip joints, the prevalence of hip dislocation will be higher. They are more commonly taken out of place with much less force than natural joint ends.

Young patients can also experience hip dislocation without trauma if they have a congenital hip problem. It is called developmental dysplasia of the hip and only happens in 2-4 patients out of 1000. The majority of them are girls.

This condition causes severe hip pain, radiating to the back, pelvic area, or legs. Moving the joint is difficult or not possible at all, and patients may be unable to locate pain properly sometimes, especially if they endured a high-energy blunt trauma and multiple injuries.
