What is Anatomy and Function of the Hip Joint about?
The hip joint is a ball-and-socket joint formed between the femur bone and pelvis. It is made up of the femoral head fitting into the acetabulum socket. The joint is stabilized by strong ligaments, tendons and muscles around it. Within the joint is articular cartilage and synovial fluid which allow the bones to move smoothly against each other. The hip joint bears significant weight and its stability and strength allow for walking and movement.
