Case Summary  |  Hip Problems


Condition Hip Dysplasia
Case Description

For years my hip has been giving me problems. If I walk too much or play sports the next day I can barely walk due to the shooting pain that goes through my hip joint. The pain is not like a muscle pain but a shooting nerve type pain. I have tried stretching it and taking gloucosime (sp?). Taking the pills I got from GNC for joint repair seemed to helped. making sure I have new shoes with extra support does help also. However, the problem continues to reoccur and often makes doing regular activites difficult. It also causes me to favor my other leg and therefore get a sore knee. I am looking for a solution. I have been struggling with this for years.
