Hip Muscle Pain?03/31/2003 |
For a few weeks now I`ve had a pain in my right hip that is like an ache or a muscle pain. It gets worse when I play football or go for a run. Can you help?
Without knowing your age and more specific symptoms, this is an impossible question to answer. Some of the typical problems that cause hip pain with activity include bursitis, arthritis of the hip and muscle strains of the muscles of the hip. However, there are many other causes of hip pain that should be considered. If you pain persists, I recommend that you seek care from a physician who has expertise in this area.
