Sore hip

I have hurt my left hip whilst running last week.

I have rested as much as possible, and have been taking anti inflammatory and paracetamol, but with little effect.

I always stretch and warm up/down.

Any advice?

Cooling down and post run stretching helps avoid some injuries, but it cannot prevent others.

Follow the PRICE principles linked to in the guide to the plan and if it persists get professional advice.
