What is "hip"?

The hip is a major joint in the human body that connects the thigh bone (femur) to the pelvis. It forms the articulation point between the lower body and the upper body, providing stability, support, and range of motion. The hip is located on the side of the body and is responsible for bearing weight, facilitating walking and movement, and maintaining balance. It consists of a ball-and-socket joint that allows for various motions, including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and rotation. The hip is crucial for overall mobility and is surrounded by muscles, tendons, and ligaments that provide strength and control during physical activities.
