Adaptive Governance text size Whether we speak of people and ecosystems as the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment does or coupled social and ecological systems as the emerging literature on adaptive governance does, it is clear that the present, past and future of human and biophysical systems are closely and intricately interconnected.
There are many tendons located around the hip that connect the muscles to the joint. With various activities or overuse, these tendons can become inflamed. This inflammation results in pain around the hip region. Iliotibial band syndrome is one of the most common causes of tendonitis at the hip joint. Hip fractures, or a break in the hip bone, are another common cause of hip pain. Fractures of the hip often occur after falls in the elderly patient population.
Hip Bursitis. Hip bursitis is a common condition that can cause bilateral hip pain in women. Hip bursitis occurs when one of the bursa, a fluid-filled sac located between ligaments or tendons and bone, becomes inflamed. Bursa act like cushions between the moving tissues, helping reduce friction and preventing pain.
