The trochanter is the anatomical part that connects the femur to the hip bone. They do not have specific functions but their main importance is that it connects the hip and the thigh muscles. There are three parts of the trochanter. The greater trochanter is the quadrilateral protruding part of the femur. It is large and irregular in shape. The lesser trochanter is is a conical protruding part and varies in size from person to person. The third trochanter is oblong, round, or conical and is the smallest of the three parts.

Avlusion fracture, inflamed sacroiliac joints, and hip dysplasia are the major problems that can damage or alter the functioning of the trochanter. Greater trochanter pain syndrome or trochanteric bursitis is another problem which causes the inflammation of tehe trochanter causing immense pain in the lower hip and the upper regions of the thigh.

Trochanter belts can help a lot in these issues. They support the trochanteric region. They supplement the abdominal muscles by supporting the pelvic and sacrum regions. It helps reduce the strain in the muscles of that rregion.
