How Can Severe Hip Bursitis Be Treated?

I have hip bursitis on both sides - did cortisone injection a few times, helped a little bit but the pain comes back - just FYI, also have a herniated disk in L4-L5 - saw a few different doctors (pain management, sports medicine, neurosurgeon) but not much help there - use advil when it gets bad - I am thinking about tack Turmeric capsules to see if it helps - any advice of what should I do or what kind of doctor should I see - thanks
