How Can Severe Pain In The Hip And Back Be Treated?
I m having a lot of pain in my hip and my back. 2 and a half months ago I had stem cell injections to help with the pain. A month and a half ago I had an x Ray taken and the doctor said I had advance Arthuritis in my hip. The surgeon wants to do surgery. My right hip seems shorter and I ve been limping for several months now. I was wondering could this be scar tissue instead of Arthuritis? I had two frozen shoulders years ago and this feels similar I don t know what kind of doctor is needed so I m not sure what membership to purchase

Mgt is either coservative or surgery.Please note hip arthritis is a degenerative condition, so your symptoms will likely to worsen in future.As your orthopedic surgeon suggested go for total hip replacement surgery.
