Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you. A thorough neuromuscular assessment is required. As mentioned by you, about the pain in the hip. I will advise you to get a thorough neuromuscular assessment. As the pain in the hip can be due to various factors. By taking a thorough assessment it is possible to come closer to the root cause and help you further. As mentioned, the pain in the hip can be due to two major factors - hip joint pathology or lumbar spine degenerative disc disease. For the hip joint pathology - undergoing a CT/MRI/X-ray will help guide further. For Lumbar spine degenerative disc disease - A CT/ MRI will help further. Based on the area involved the treatment will be planned. Also, by performing strengthening exercises for the core, spine muscles, pelvic floor muscles, hip muscles and lower limbs as well. Usually, the recovery optimum based on the training implemented. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
