Painful Leg And In Groin Area, Pressure Sensation, Joint Clicking. What Does It Mean?

I'm 57 a female. I have a pain at the top of my left leg, near the groin area. I apply pressure to the area when I walk or stand up. It feels like a joint is clicking. Now I've gotten this far, I hadn't realized I would have to pay. Sorry I no longer wish to continue with your service, I read and mis-understood what I was completing. Sorry to bother you............

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi, thank you for your question.
My answer to you is free so do not worry about the payment this time.

Your symptoms sounds like early arthritis in your hip, I will advise for X-ray of the hip/ pelvis to confirm the diagnosis.
Try simple analgesia for now.

Kind regards
I find this answer helpful
