Hip stiffness and pain from prolonged bedrest?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: If you have been confined to bed for a while, you may feel unsteady and a little "stiff" throughout. If you find you are stiff in one hip, however , it suggests that you have an underlying hip disorder, such as arthritis.
