Q: Hip Pain
asked by: Annienk on February 10th, 2005

I am 23 years old and for about 4 years I have a chronic pain, almost like a burning sensation in my hip sockets. When I wake up in the morning it is incredibly painful. Also when I am sitting or walking there is this dull, burning pain. What could this be?
Thank you!

Do you ever get a stabbing pain right in the joint of you hip when you move it to quickly? The other symptoms you listed seem similar to mine but I get a stabbing pain with it and it is by far the worst.

Hi there, I am no Dr. But I feel for ya, I live in chronic pain 24/7 and I just keep moving even though it is hell most of the time but it is the best thing I have found that helps me to keep my mind off of it, being young does not help either. Have you had an x-ray? Have you seen a dr? You might look up rsd(crps) that is one of the things I was diagnosed with, it has a lot to do with the burning pain and the burning pain is hell to deal with, I totally understand where you are coming from. The first thing to do is get to a Dr. And get some x-rays and possibly an mri. Do not be surprised if one of the dr's. Tell you that it is all in your head, just move on to another Dr. Until you get answers(beware, it might not be the answers you want), keep on their butt's until you get some help. Keep us posted on what you find out and how you are doing as I know you posted this 2-10-05.
Sincerely,
sandy

Thank you for your replies! I took a medicine called glucosamide (glucosamene) for a week and I really did feel a difference. I should be going to a doctor because I am runner and it could mean I have athritis! If you have any more advice let me know!
Thank you!
