Septic Arthritis of the Hip

Septic arthritis is an intensely painful infection in a joint. The joint can become infected with germs that travel through your bloodstream from another part of your body. Septic arthritis can also occur when a penetrating injury brings germs directly into the joint.

Symptoms:

  • Extreme discomfort and difficulty using the affected joint.
  • The joint may be swollen, red and warm.
  • Fever
