How Can Hip Pain Caused By An Accident Be Treated?

hi, about 10 years ago i fell off a horse and shocked my lower back and hips. i was unable to move for a few hours and it took about a week for me to be able to walk properly. I have suffered with bad hips every since. i have previously been to the doctor who told me to loose weight, this i did and returned a year later. I was then told that this was a kind of pain i was going to have to put up with! my hips click as i walk and crack every few minutes (loud enough for other people to hear), they also feel like they come out of the joint or are not sitting in the joint properly. recently the pain has also spread to the back of the joints aswel, making walking very difficult and even standing painful!! please help!

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Dear patient
Considering your case possibility of hip arthritis with loose bodies inside hip is more likely. Are you having difficulty in squatting and cross legged position? If yes then this diagnosis is more likely. I would advise Xray of pelvis with both hips anteroposterior and frog leg view to confirm diagnosis. Visit radiology center nearby you and get it done. If report shoes arthritis need to consult expert orthopaedic surgeon nearby you and get yourself examined. If report is normal start physiotherapy with hip range of motion exercises from physiotherapist. All the best.
