Involvement pain in the lumbar spine area, as well as compression of nerve roots in the lumbar region can lead to femoral head pain.
Femoral head pain may also be part of the systemic manifestations of rheumatic diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, adult medial spondyloarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.), and treatment of femoral head pain due to these diseases should begin with control of this rheumatic disease.
Some neurological conditions (chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy) can also lead to hip pain due to nerve damage.
