Recurrent Hip Pain. Normal MRI. Recommendations?
I have a teenage daughter who is 16yrs old and has been complainning of recurrent hip pain over the past year. The pain intially started in the right hip and has now affected both left and right hips. We have seen 2 different doctors who have 2 different thoughts for reason of pain. She had a MRI done about 6 months ago which did not show anything accordng to her doctor. She is very fit, active young women but this pain is now affecting her ADL's.
Thank You,
Nancy
