Kids don’t usually have symptoms. That’s one reason it sometimes goes undiagnosed. Adolescents and adults do tend to have symptoms, though. These symptoms may get worse over time. Hip dysplasia can feel like:
Groin pain, especially toward the front.
A frequent and uncomfortable popping, locking, or snapping in your hip joint.
Pain at night in your hip when sleeping.
A muscle ache in your hip.
Pain in your hip that gets worse if you stand a lot.
Pain during exercises that use your hips, such as walking and running.
