Why Am I Having Difficulty In Putting Weight On Right Hip?
I am having a hard time with my hip -- when walking on level ground it doesn't hurt so much -- but I cannot put my
weight on my right foot to climb up stairs. I have to put my left leg up first - then pull my right leg up. OR, if I can
hold onto a railing to pull my weight forward it doesn't hurt quite so much.
