Have Recurring Blister On Hip Bone. What Is Causing This? Any Cure

i have a recurring blister on my right hip bone . first time it was a water blister the size of a quarter...it was drained and it took a long time to heal so it is scarred. the other day i noticed i have a smaller blister in the same location, on top of the scar. any ideas where these are coming from? I do have a tendency to lay on my right hip when watching tv or sleeping.

It looks to me that you are having greater trochanter bursitis. this is collection of fluid at hip bone. I would recommend you to take hot water fomentation, pain killer like brufen. There is role of steroid injection also. Avoid sleeping o that side.
