Suggest Treatment For Persistent Soreness In Hip And Leg Muscles
My muscles in my hips and both legs are extremely sore. Its not in my joints...just muscles. They have been that way since October 2015 and I haven t had any relief. At first I thought I pulled my muscles but then it continuously got worse..a lot worse. So bad I can barely move. I have tried muscle relaxers, Tylenol, advil, aleve and nothing even remotely works. My muscles ache everyday all day.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have persistent soreness in hip and leg muscles . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like tendonitis , arthritis , trochanteric bursitis and hip fractures . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor may check ability to walk , joint motion and order X-rays , computed tomography scans and MRI . Doctor may prescribe muscle relaxant , anti inflammatory , along with vitamin supplement for quick recovery . Doctor may recommend complete bed rest and in severe cases doctor may recommend surgery like hip replacement surgery . For now take proper rest , stop playing until it gets normal and sit in warm tub for 15 minutes daily . Take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain and apply warm compresses on hip joint and leg .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
