Can hip cartilage regenerate?

The hip joint cartilage is mainly composed of hyaline cartilage, and its regeneration ability is relatively poor. Moreover, the nutrition required by hyaline cartilage is mainly provided by the joint fluid of the hip joint. Therefore, the hip joint cartilage generally does not regenerate after wear caused by excessive activity or cartilage damage caused by trauma. However, in the later functional activities of the hip joint, cartilage function will not be completely lost. In the later recovery, hip joint function has certain recovery, after hip joint cartilage injury, local bleeding and inflammatory reaction can be shown, gradually showing compensatory fibrocartilage hyperplasia, can replace hip joint hyaline cartilage, can slow down hip joint wear during activity, help to restore part of joint function activity. After hip joint cartilage injury, active treatment should be taken to promote function recovery to the greatest extent.
