Women’s Hip Health: When Delayed Diagnosis Or Treatment Causes Avoidable Harm

Women’s Hip Health

Pink October is an opportunity to raise awareness of breast cancer and the importance of early diagnosis, while encouraging women to speak up when something does not feel right and to feel confident that their concerns will be heard. It also opens the door to a wider conversation: women can face many other health issues throughout their lives, and these too deserve timely attention, proper investigation and year-round awareness.

At Bond Turner, we champion women’s health all year round by highlighting conditions that can be overlooked, misunderstood or not properly investigated. Hip health is a prime example and one that people usually overlook or fail to consider. Developmental conditions, pregnancy-related pain, osteoporosis, fractures, osteoarthritis and complications after hip replacement surgery; all of those are potential complications that timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment can prevent.
