    Posterior hip dislocation is a serious injury that causes extreme pain, prevents weight bearing, and may damage nerves. Patients will describe hearing or feeling a "pop" followed by inability to move the leg due to pain. A hip dislocation makes walking impossible and can reduce feeling in the foot or ankle if nerves are affected.

    Posterior hip dislocation is rarely, if ever, an occult injury due to the amount of pain elicited as

    well as an inability to ambulate or bear weight on the affected extremity afterward. The patient's
    history will usually involve a description/experience in which there was a significant "clunk" or
    "popping" followed immediately by pain. A hip dislocation is very painful. Patients are unable to
    move the leg, and, if there is nerve damage, they may not have any feeling in the foot or ankle
    area.
