The Real Reason Your Lateral Hip Pain Won’t Go Away

You stretch, foam roll, rest, and ice, but the pain on the outside of your hip keeps coming back. It’s frustrating and confusing, especially when you feel like you’re doing everything right.
Lateral hip pain doesn’t always come from one obvious cause. In fact, the source is often deeper than the glutes or IT band you’ve been targeting.
You might be missing key culprits like:
Hip stabilizer weakness
• Poor pelvic control during movement
• A gait pattern that overloads one side
• Referred pain from your lower back
If those sound unfamiliar, you’re not alone. Most athletes only focus on the pain point and not the movement patterns causing it.
That’s where the real breakthrough happens. Once you identify and fix the root cause, your hip pain finally has a chance to resolve, for good.
