Paracetamol is the best for the aching bone pain but the only cure for arthritic pain is surgery. The injections are used as a diagnostic tool to assess if the pain is arthritic or soft tissue. Surgery is not recommended for younger active people because they wear the replacement out quickly and it has to be revised. Physio can help inprove the supporting soft tissues to take some more of the strain.

You have my sympathy asI have the same and toothache is an apt description. At night putting a pillow between your legs can help with the pain.x
