Hip bursitis can affect anyone, but it is more common among women, the middle-aged, and the elderly.
Hip bursitis is associated with the following risk factors:
- Overuse or repetitive stress injury. This can occur when running, climbing stairs, bicycling, or standing for a long period of time.
- Hip injury. The point of the hip can be injured if you fall on it, bump it, or lie on one side of your body for a long time.
- Spine disease. It can include scoliosis, arthritis of the lumbar (lower) spine, and other problems related to the spine.
- Leg length inequality. In the case of one leg being significantly shorter than the other, it will affect how you walk, and can irritate your hip bursa.
- Rheumatoid arthritis. Inflammation of the bursa occurs as a result.
- Bone spurs or calcium deposits. They can develop in the tendons that connect muscles to the trochanter. Bursae can become irritated and inflamed as a result.
