How Long Will Trochanteric Bursitis Take To Cure
I just found out that the pain in my hip is Trochanteric Bursitis and would like to know what to expect from this and how long does it usually last. This is what my doctor thinks I have, I also have a back problem. Does this have anything to do with that? He wants me to come back in a month and if I still have the pain he wants to give me a cortisone shot. Thank you, Margie
