General & Family Physician, Dr. Priyanka's Response
Hi welcome to health care magic forum,
It seems you have got this either by trauma, exertion,sprain, strain, etc, any ways need not to worry, just wait for few more days by the same medication it should improve, if not then you might have to take help of a orthopedic specialist, you might have to get a X-Ray done to know the underlying any hairline fracture, I further advice you not to do any massage very hardly over the hip, you can very lightly apply Oint-Volini gel, gentle rub,3-4 times daily.
Thanks.
