Hip Anatomy

The hip is one of the largest weight-bearing joints in the body. When it's working properly, it lets you walk, sit, bend, and turn without pain. The hip is a ball and socket joint. Ligaments form a capsule connecting the ball to the socket and hold the bones in place.

The neck is called the cervical spine which is made up of 7 vertebra, the mid-back is the thoracic spine with 12 vertebra and the low back is the lumbar spine with 5 vertebra and the sacrum. Vertebra are the boney structure of the spine. They provide both protection and support for the spinal cord. A disc sits between each vertebra.
