default
Posted on Sat, 5 Aug 2017
Question: Yes, I'm feeling this weird pain on my right hip right by its joint, and I was wondering what that might be, I can't move very well that hurts, like if a nerve was pinched or that my hip is inflammed, it's been like this for a couple o days now, I have tried ice packs and massage with bengay cream, but it's not helping, and also it's kinda tender to the touch, any idea what might be?

I sent a question about 30 mins ago, not sure how to check the answer

Brief Answer:
Can be arthritis or infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain in the right hip joint that you have can be due to arthritis or labrum tear or tendonitis. This can be due to a muscle spasm or infection also. The exact cause can be detected only after a direct examination and an MRI scan of the joint. Till then avoid doing a massage do a hot compress and take rest. Avoid any weight bearing on the leg.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
