Suggest Treatment For Burning Sensation In The Hip Post An Injury
My right hip has been swollen for about 3 years. It happened when I was at work and almost fell off a ladder. I jumped off instead of falling into a metal shelf. When I landed on the floor my whole body jarred . Since then it has gotten worse. I have no relief from the pain. The muscle above my hip in my back burns all the time. A nurse friend said something about my s something vertebrae. What exactly is that?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Sometimes after trauma, there may be compression fracture of the vertebrae or nerves may be injured directly from the impact.
It is necessary for further investigations such x-rays of the lumbosacral spine and nerves conduction study in order to understand better your condition. Discuss with your primary care Doctor about these issues.
