Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I m a 15 year old long distance runner and when I first got injured 4 months ago I had strained hip flexor with a sharp low back pain and bilateral hip pain I could barely walk but I managed it , after my low back healed in about a week I never really knew what it was , and the hip flexors healed in two months , after that I still have the bilateral hip pain . It hurts to bear my weight on the left and right it feels achy and sometimes sharp if I do a sudden wrong movement the pain is more intense when I wake up in the morning or when I get up from a seated position .sometimes it hurts in the side of the hip and sometimes in the front it feels like it changes position as to where the pain is located . The docs said at first it was growing pains because there was nothing wrong on the xray . I m getting an MRI done this Saturday but I want to rule out some of the possibilities first . I haven t ran or trained and the hip pain feels muscular or like tendon pains somedays it hurts more and some days it feels like it s almost gone but it s a never ending cycle it feels like if a muscle or tendon is being stretched too hard or pulled causing pain when I stick out my hip
Hi, you have taken a right decision for going for an MRI, it will rule out any hip joint related cause of pain if any, muscular pains due to strain usually heal by 3 to 6 months. continue light activity and avoid heavy jogging and running, also be patient and wait for the outcome of MRI scanning. Relieve yourself of tension. Hope I helped you understand your symptoms
