Q: Hip Joint Pain

I am 63 years old, am very active exercising and working 7 days a week. I have suffered wtih hip joint pain that continues to get worse for 6 or 7 years. Sometimes my hip give out when I stand up.The pain is so great that I limp. Otherwise I am in excellent condition, feel no different than when I was 40. Every time I go to a new Dr. They order an xray that does not show any disorder. What is this? Can anyone help. I am in constant pain.

X-rays do not always show the cause of pain - nor do mri's etc - sometimes the pain in say your hip can be caused by something elsewhere being out of position or by a nerve being pinched or a muscle problem. This applies especially if you're female & had any children - we tend to carry them & other stuff on our hips & so put things "out" & cause problems later.

Try some of the natural meds like chondroitin & glucosamine 750-1500mgs of each once or twice a day - there are others too.
