What Causes Pain In The Hips And Difficulty In Joining Knees?
I am a 29 year old female 5'7" at 149 lbs. I cannot cross my legs do to the joint at the hips not allowing it. If I do not attempt to cross my legs I do not have pain. I can do squats with no pain. I cannot keep my knees together once they are close enough to my chest. Why? Brandee :0)

hello,
thank you for using healthcare magic .
I read your question and understood your concern.
You my hip hip arthritis may be due to childhood hip dysplasia or development dysplasia of the hip.
it will cause you early arthritis of hips in young age causing you limitation of range of motion of the hips. I suggest you to do a pelvic x-ray to exclude these conditions
