Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Hip
Question: I have a pain and a bump on my rear right hip. The pain radiates down the front of my right leg and on my right buttocks. It is worst when I stand and lean over e.g. At the sink. It has been bothering me for about a week. I do streatching exercises every morning. It started after golf, but I did not feel a pain while playing that day. I played yesterday and there was some pain. Should I XXXXXXX a orthopedist or a chiropractor or what?
Brief Answer:
Need an orthopedician for examination.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain in the hip that started after playing golf with a swelling can be due to bursitis or a bulging disc at the back. Proper examination is needed for diagnosis. You need to consult an orthopedician. Avoid all painful movements and take a mild pain killer and do a hot compress to reduce the inflammation.
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.
