Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Pain will not go away on it's own, as you have avascular necrosis to the left hip. I suggest you painkillers such as Naproxen or Voltaren with doctor prescription but the only solution is surgery with hip replacement. Be careful not to gain weight, do not carry heavy weight too.

All the best!
