Suggest Treatment For Hip Pain
It can be due to osteoarthritis.
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely osteoarthritis. Examination by an orthopedician and x rays of hip and knee will be helpful to rule out this.
Over the counter pain killers like ibuprofen (motrin) will be helpful for pain management. Physiotherapy and muscle strengthening exercise will be helpful also. If you are having excess weight then losing some weight will be helpful also.
Interarticular cortcosteoid injections will be helpful if pain is more. Injections like alflutop is also helpful in decreasing pain and inflammation.
Only in late stages of osteoarthritis joint replacement is needed.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.

Welcome again.
Thank you for your follow up query.
Initially bone cancer won't have any symptoms other than localized pain. Later on it can cause extensive pain due to spread to nerves. It can also cause weight loss,generalized weakness, malaise and spread to other areas like lungs.
Taking a x ray will be helpful to rule out that. We can't say that there is no possibility. So it is better to have a x ray after consulting an orthopedician.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if any thing not clear.
Thanks.
