What Causes Pain In The Hips?

I have mild hip pain in my left hip. I say mild, because sometimes I don t feel it at all, but most of the time it feels like a pinched nerve & I walk with a limp until I walk enough and the pain dissipates. Im a school teacher who walks from one classroom to another all day, so I do move around quite a bit. I had it x-rayed along with my right knee ( showed arthritis) , but the knee no longer causes me pain, & the bone specialist didn t see arthritis in my hip. I do 4-5 ; 20 minute workouts a week. The personal trainer calls it LeanFit because it s not as much strength building as CrossFit workouts, but similar Workouts (less weight, more cardio). I ve always been active, but this hip pain seems to be getting worse, rather than better. Do you have any suggestions on how to get rid of this hip pain?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

As per my clinical experience, this hip pain sounds to be nerve compression at the lower lumbar spine level and same would be diagnosed with the MRI spine further.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
