What Causes Worsened Pain In Hip After An Injection For Bursitis?

I am experiencing severe pain in my right hip-I am almost 40, have had 3 spine surgeries due to DDD (they say). The pain is constant, stabbing, made worse when I climb stairs, walk longer distances or after sitting for too long. My surgeon gave me a shot to see if I had Bursitis and I swear the pain has gotten worse since that shot. He recommends a specialist...just looking for more advice/help

HI

You need an MRI of the hip
While this still could be bursitis, it could be a labral tear or a tendon problem
