Hi,

If there is a need of hip replacement and you don't wish to go for it then only options left are physiotherapy and analgesics but both will give only temporarily relief.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Jaideep Gaver, Orthopedic Surgeon
