Are you experiencing pain in your hip? Surgery is not always the answer, as Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon Sebastian Dawson-Bowling explains in this video about hip injections.

Hip injections can help break the so-called ‘cycle of inflammation’ that can occur in the hip joint. Find out as Dawson-Bowling explains the types of hip injections available, who they’re suitable for, how long until hip injections take effect, and whether they are an alternative to hip replacement surgery.

About Sebastian Dawson-Bowling:
Sebastian Dawson-Bowling specialises in all aspects of lower limb surgery, most predominantly primary and revision hip and knee surgery.

His approach is centred around a firm belief that effective and empathetic communication with patients before surgery is a key element in both their short-term post-operative recovery, and in their long-term outcomes.
