Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello.. I have had pain in my left hip intermittenly for a couple years. Just sleeping on my side aggravates it. I ve had x rays - the hip is structurally sound. My orthopaedist said it is bursitis. But now I have a dull ache in my upper left cheek. I m wondering what else it could be.
