Women in severe hip joint,leg,buttock pain

[vergis]

Hello any one i'm in need of advice, I have been in severe pain for about two years. Had an MRI the doctor stated that I have osteoartristis in my right hip joint. He sent me for hip injection,the first injection made me feel so good after three weeks he sent me for another hip injection,the pain never went away. The only way that I can walk without pain is to place sometime between my upper thigh and take three Bayer back and body. I only had this doctor for five months and he is talking about hip surgery. Does anyone know of any thing else that i can try.

Hi, I'm so sorry you have so much pain- sounds so much like what I had. Before considering surgery, can you read John Sarno's book called healing back pain? It takes about 3 hours to read, and you may, like me, feel finally totally understood and my back, leg, hip etc pain started to relieve. Took some work and help from the online forum, but I'm now up and active and mostly pain free!

Worth a try?

WOW, this book sounds as if it would benefit me as well. I am so desperate for relief from all that I have going on, with my back, shoulders, and hips. Thank you for sharing the information.

I have oesteo arthritis in both hips my consultant said that I will need replacements but because of my age (46) I have to wait till next year one thing that does help me is swimming I had hydrotherapy for 5 months and it did help me slot with managing the pain so twice a week I do a bit of light swimming which relaxes me maybe it might help you ?.
