Q1: Why does my hip click or pop?
Clicking or popping may be caused by labrum tears, loose cartilage, or tendon injuries. These cannot be ruled out without MRI.

Q2: Short therapy hasn’t helped — should I get MRI?
Yes. MRI identifies structural damage, enabling targeted treatment and preventing chronic hip problems.

Q3: Risks of delaying MRI?
Untreated labrum or cartilage injury may lead to chronic pain, decreased mobility, and early osteoarthritis.

Q4: Why MRI over X-ray or ultrasound?
MRI provides high-resolution, radiation-free imaging of soft tissues. X-ray shows bones only; ultrasound is operator-dependent.

Q5: Fast MRI option?
The Pain Relief Clinic provides MRI scans under $1,000, insurance and Medisave claimable, within 1 working day, with non-surgical treatment options.
