The most common cause of hip pain is osteoarthritis of the hip joint. Avascular necrosis, or AVN, is a serious condition marked by death of hip bone at the joint. The pain is usually worse and far more constant than in osteoarthritis. âPeople come to me saying, âMy hip is killing me,ââ says Dr. Murray.
