What Causes Radiating Pain In The Hip?
Question: aching pain from my groin over to my hip. worsens in some sitting positions and when walking feels more like pain in in lower part of hip
Brief Answer:
Can be due to osteoarthritic changes.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
From your symptoms it seems that your hip joint has undergone osteoarthritic changes. The treatment options include pain killers, hot fomentation, lubricating agents like glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin , dycerin, etc and some life style modifications and physiotherapy.
Right now you can start taking Tablet Tylenol ( Acetaminophen) Double Strength after breakfast and after dinner. It is suggested to add calcium supplements 500mg each twice daily. This will take care of your mild symptoms in 3-5 days.
I also encourage you to consult an orthopedician for physical examination. A few blood tests, X-rays of the hip, CT / MRI scans of the hip will help us diagnose the condition and help us in choosing the best approach of treatment.
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.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
