In humans, hip dysplasia symptoms may not appear until a child starts walking, and mild cases may not become noticeable until adolescence or adulthood. Children may have an uneven gait or trouble walking. Older individuals may experience groin pain, hip stiffness, or discomfort, especially during activities such as running. As time passes, stress focused on the loose joint can lead to osteoarthritis. Symptoms can vary because the condition ranges from mild hip looseness to more serious joint problems.
