Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case.
As per your history there can be possibility of hip arthritis which can be degenerative or due to avascular necrosis of femoral head [AVN].
I will advise you do MRI of hip and you can consult with your doctor.

Till time take analgesic and cartilage protecting medication like glucosamine sulphate.
For hip arthritis joint flexion, extension and rotation exercises will help.
Physiotherapist will help you better to learn more exercises in proper protocol.
If required intra-articular injection can be given but do MRI hip before it.

Diet rich in calcium and protein will help

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care
