Hip Pain After Being Kicked By A Donkey. Help
I was bucked off of a donkey during a charity basketball game landing almost supine. As a result I have experienced severe pain in my left hip in particular when entering the driver side of car and more specifically when shifting my left leg into car after being seated. If I try to lift my left leg let s say to do a bent left knee stretch there is pain in my hip. The injury is four months old. Help.....

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Having pain in a four month old injury can be due to affection of deeper hip structures and lower spine. You need to have an MRI scan of the area to know the exact cause. Taking pain killers along with muscle relaxants and regular hot fomentation will be helpful.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
