Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have persistent pain in the hips . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like nerve compression , tendinitis , sciatica or due to wrong posture for long time . Disc problem can also cause such symptoms . The symptoms can also occur due to hip joint problem .I would suggest you to apply warm compresses to shoulder , so not work in one posture for long time and back twice a day , take proper rest an take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain . If condition doesn't get better then consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor Will order CT scan or MRI along with physical examination . Doctor may prescribe muscle relaxant along with anti inflammatory and recommend physical therapy or surgery of hip joint . Doctor may recommend particular stretching exercises or surgery in severe case .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
