Suggest Remedies For Muscle Or Joint Strain In The Hip
Question: Hi Doctor,
During a trek over 2 months ago, I strained my right hip joint. Now everytime I run for longer than 2km, the pain comes back. As I was training for a 5k marathon, the pain was a lot and I had to limp for a bit. It eventually subsides when I rest. Is this something I need to show to a doctor? How can this pain be cured permanently?
