I am 55 y/o female. I have had progressively worsening bilateral lateral hip pain over the last 14 years. Xrays 12 years ago were negative for arthritis. I use Tylenol with some relief. The pain is worse at night, with gradual relief on lying on my back. It is also worse with stepping up even one step. I have no back pain, and no radiating pain. I ALWAYS have pain... it is never completely relieved.
Hi, I value your concern regarding the symptoms. I have gone through your symptoms, and in my opinion you will need a fresh X-Ray to clear your hip condition, there are many causes of hip pain, and radiological screening is the primary step. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health. Special note-Any medication prescribed needs to be taken after consultation with your personal doctor only.
