A member asked:

What hip injuries could you get from falling off a horse?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Various: You can get a broken bone in the hip, a sprain or strain, a pulled muscle, a bruise, just sore, etc. You will be sore for a few days and worse the day or two after the injury. If you have excruciating or significantly worsening pain you need to be seen.
