Welcome to this community. Do you have PMR or GCA? If so, what dose of prednisolone are you on? As it may be that your dosage is too low. Normal pain killers do not work on PMR pain. The experts will be along soon I am sure.
Take a look at Bowen Therapy and then you might just want to try three sessions to see if it will work for you..........better than adding more medication.

Also put Tom Bowen in your search engine and read up the 'how, why and when'.
If you do decide to try it, then make sure you go to the registered pracitioner list. bowen-technique.co.uk/

Have you got a diagnosis for the CAUSE of the hip pain? There are a lot of things it could be - not just PMR which is what we talk about here.
Not what you're looking for?
