Suggest Remedy For Shooting Pain From Leg To Hip Due To Fall
Over a week ago, I tried to step up a large step and missed it and stepped down really hard just before the large step and now I feel a pain shooting down my leg from my hip area. I have been taking advil for a week and using a heating pad but it does not seem to help.
