Hip pain in children can present a diagnostic challenge for the pediatric primary care provider. This case study examines an otherwise healthy 3-year-old girl with unilateral hip pain and intermittent refusal to bear weight on the affected side. Through history and physical examination, the provider was able to appropriately diagnose transient synovitis. This case study will summarize the care for hip pain in a child, including potential causes, a focused history and physical examination, appropriate diagnostic testing, and recommendations for home care and follow-up.
