It is described as a ball-and-socket joint. This design allows the hip to move in several directions. The bony socket is surrounded by a ring of cartilage called the labrum.

Patients often say: the pain is located at the back on top of the shoulder or in the front on top of the shoulder. the pain feels like it is deep inside.
