Thank you for your videos! I have particular interest in this one as I developed severe hip pains in the last four weeks. I had an x Ray and ultra sound. My GP said I have marked hip arthritis, but that the pain is most likely from Bursitis. That may be right, but there has been no pain or soreness in touching or pressing my hip and hip bone. No reddening or extra warm areas. The (severe) pain felt to me to be more internal. After my pressing him, my GP has reluctantly given me a referral to a Rheumatologist. The pain has lessened with less movement and pain relief. I have encountered this reluctance by GPs to refer to a specialist previously. It always seems a little unprofessional to me. More about their needs than mine!thanks again for your excellent videos. I have not seen anything quite like them before!

This old video just popped up, as I’ve been desperately searching the internet for ways to eliminate hip pain caused by a fall seven months ago. I was getting depressed at how long it’s taking to heal (I’m 66, so I’m sure age is a factor). But hearing you say it could take 12 to 18 months to recover made me feel better. There’s an end game! I will continue to do PT (God, I hate split squats!) and remind myself daily that I will get better. Thanks for the insights and cause for hope. Oh, and a bedside manner tip I learned from my doctor that you may not be aware of; when you’re looking at a patient’s ultrasound and the patient is sitting right next to you but they’re not looking at the monitor because in tv shows this is where everything goes wrong, never blurt out, “Whoa, look at this! You fell hard!” That doesn’t really help. Thanks for this video.

Very informative video!! I've been dealing with bursitis in my right hip off and on now for a few years. I find it interesting that you talk about a clicking hip. I have always been able pop my hips in and out, more on the right though. It's more of something you can feel rather than hear. I used to do it a lot as a teenager because people got a kick out of it. How do you treat a clicking hip and could this be a reason why my hip seems to stay aggravated? I have hyper mobility in my hips, fingers, toes and spine.

@TalkingWithDocs

Hi Melissa. The clicking is often related to the tight band snapping over your greater trochanter. It often has no specific solution however if you are able to stretch out the fascia sometimes the snapping will reduce. Hope that helps. And thanks for watching.

Hey how r u now did you recover fully from bursitis

I've not presented as a "hip' to an ortho nurse practitioner, a PT or ortho PA. No hip involvement was suspected despite my age (73) and my obesity. They took a side view that caught more of my lower spine that only showed slight anterior slippage in the L4-L5. Since I had NO symptoms in my lower legs they just were stumped.However, when they took a front view x-ray of my hip they saw...and I saw...serious arthritis bilaterally. However, I have no signs of a hip problem. The doctors will not do a replacement...which I neither want or think I need...due to my weight, age and comorbidities. However...that is all they are focused on now---my hip. Your video was SUCH a gift to me. I can touch the pain with one finger...right over the trochanter. It radiates down the back of my thigh, across where the thigh and the buttocks connect and, on really bad days, across the top of my thigh in a downward angle...not towards the groin. And hearing how long it can take to heal, oddly, was a comfort to me. Everything I've read said 2-3 weeks. I was getting very discouraged. That helped tremendously. My PT had me biking...bad choice. I continue with as much movement as I can and I'm slowly losing weight the healthy way. That was a very, very long way of saying a GIANT Thank You to you both!!!!!!!!

Got a cortisone injection yesterday in my hip. I was so surprised how quickly the pain disappeared. I still "feel" the sensation of discomfort, but no pain. I've had the pain for years but it's gotten worse the last year since I started my new job. Tried everything, physiotherapy, stretching, changing shoes, thinking how my posture is, how I walk - nothing helped. So I'm so thankful for the injection if it works long term with exercise. I'm not even 25 years old so it's very demotivating to have that much pain.

Having disabling pain for 8 months, limping, started to just sit and do nothing so I finally got cortisone injection last week. What a relief!

Can you please do a video on hip arthroscopy for a labral tear

I am 69 and did have a clicking right hip after doing a roundhouse kick in my late 30s. No problem until last summer when I was really pushing myself in many ways. Then over the course of a few days my hip bursa hurt to the point that there was no position I could get in without a stabbing pain. I ended up getting driven to a minute clinic while holding my right side off the seat and hobbled in with trekking poles and stayed standing to be seen. Steroids, muscle relaxants, stretching and a heat pad slowly got me back on my feet. After 10 months of daily stretching and exercise I am almost back to my old self but can still feel the bursa at times waiting for me to push it too far. It was a crippling experience.

Lisa Gonzalez: I took a bad fall a month ago and my knees broke the fall. In my later years my knees have given me problems, coming from the days when I use to lift weights. I have had cortisone shots to my knees, which helped greatly and also once to my hips, the effects which didn't last that long. So after the fall the knees got better, but I guess from over compensating to keep my knees from hurting, the hips and the ball joint are now causing me really bad pain. I can hardly walk at home without having to hold on to the countertops and furniture. My NSAIDS have not helped any. So, now I'm considering a cortisone(s) shot again, but I've been putting it off. I too have heard that stretching helps. So, are there any specific exercises on KZread that I could do to help alleviate the pain? I would truly appreciate some guidance! Thank you. -EB

@@pelucitadered yes ,there are lots of video exercises on stretching (just type in stretches for hip Bursitis) and icing the hip area helps with the inflammation as well .Do these every day, maybe twice a day if you can , but be patient it does work .( Ibuprofen too)

Please can you advice how soon can you return to reformer Pilates after a cortisone injection for hip bursitis

Thank you, great information. I have read to ice the area. Do you have a diagram of where exactly to place the cold on your hip bursitis?

No, sorry. On the most prominent part on the side of your hip.

I just had 2 injections, one in each hip, for Trochanteric bursitis. Xrays were taken, the the MD immediately confirmed by diagnosis, and gave me the Cortisone injections. TBH, I thought I had hip arthritis. I'm glad I was wrong. Right now I am very sore in the hips from these injections - the needles were long and very long - but....I'm glad this MD did not make me waste time on oral meds, physiotherapy, PT, stretching, etc.etc.etc. ....I have faith that these cortisone injections are going to work.

Very welcome Michelle. Good luck and thanks for watching.

I have tried Voltaren and Bio Freeze and Liddocaine on my hip. Can you recommend anything else? My physical medicine guy was very negative about the cortizone shots.

Thank you - that was really helpful & very informative. Been suffering from right-hand hip bursitis for a while now & been struggling to know what to do. I had been to a chiropractor who has been doing intense deep tissue massage in the area as they said it was the best thing for it following a cortisone injection from my doctor - but of course, now I realise, that was a HUGE mistake to have the deep tissue massage & it has been keeping the problem going. I feel so stupid & foolish in retrospect - but are now seeing a Physiotherapist instead and doing the exercises he has recommended & have already noticed an improvement even though it is very early days. I guess I am making my comment so no-one else does what I did re the deep tissue massage - and to just rely on your doctor and his recommendations: learned my lesson the hard way plus the financial outlay has been very large :-(

Hi CraftingMyWorld. Sounds like you were having a difficult time. Massage is not universally bad however this can aggravate the problem. Physio and NSAIDs (orally or topically) are the mainstays. Good luck to you!

I"ve had people advise me to NOT go to a chiropractor and am so glad I took their advise. My husband injured his back and chose to go to a chiropractor who massaged the area, didn't make a x-ray so wonder how he knew what was wrong!! The massage was very painful and did not solve the problem, in fact the pain was worse. Husband went to a surgeon and the problem was solved after a few months of recoup.

It sounds like I am one of the few people who had surgery to remove the bursas from both greater trochanters. I did this because nothing else worked. The surgery was painful but it did help. About two years after my bursas were removed, I had both hips replaced. I hope this info may help someone where shots and meds don't help.

I have been unlucky to have this and you have clarified how long the process is.cycling up hill it seems sent my hip in to trauma and now I can hardly walk or work. My physio says exactly what u have and I’m hoping my exercises prolong the pain till I can get an injection

Hi Billy. Yes stretch those soft tissues out to reduce the contact and the pain. Medications and topicals are a good start before the injection. Good luck and thanks for watching.

I have Greater Trochanteric Bursitis bilaterally together with ITB syndrome, thought to have been caused by the gift of having lupus. I am no athlete and can barely walk 50yards due to pelvic nerve compression and meralgia paraesthetica. 2 depo injs have not worked on my worst, left side. The right is still to be done. Physio is extremely limited for me due to the various things lupus has done and my own frozen pelvis, bladder, right leg etc. They are planning to empty out some of the inflamed fluid athroscopically I believe. Would you recommend this? I'm 57 and have had lupus for 8 years; also FM, sjogrens syndrome; shoulder impingement syndrome; frozen pelvis and compressed nerves. If I fall asleep on my side I have to be removed from bed like a plaster, an inch at a time whilst screaming; a huge purple circle is on my hip with heat coming off it and the pain lasts days and goes through to the bone, it feels like. Are you Americans more advanced in this area than UK? I don't know what to do as I become more wheelchair and bedbound every day, not just with the bursitis, with all of it. Am already on opiods and Pregabalin. Help, please, just advice if you can. Thank you.

Hi Dawn. Thanks for sharing your story and we are sorry to hear that you are having such a difficult time. So the mainstay of treatment is pain control and physio for bursitis. Sometimes the fluid can be aspirated with a needle but rarely would this be done arthroscopically. Occasionally surgeons would consider an open bursectomy done through an incision but this is rare. Some patients benefit from a topical compound that can include a local anesthetic, anti-inflammatory, muscle relaxant and nerve agent. This may be worth pursuing. Bursitis can be persistent and very debilitating. Good luck and thanks for watching. And for the record, we are Canadian.

Any thoughts on shockwave therapy? I'm doing that and I'm quite sceptical.

This was so informative. Thank you for this video and explanation!! I have this and don't know why it began. I do have hip snapping a lot- have had it since I was a teen. Are there any exercises to strengthen the area and lessen the hip snapping??

The worst pain I ever felt. Next to giving birth! I just got an injection 💉. It worked out wonderfully. I had never heard of bursa or bursitis until I woke up in pain this weekend.

Thx for this...the term bursitis sounds so benign but it is sooo painful! It seems stretching and moving is the best...but getting up from a seated position is the worst! Please, could you do a video on Cervical spine problems? I have multiple level arthritis and disk deterioration (bulging, bone spurs, blah, blah, blah) with radicular pain into shoulder and down my arm. I'd love to hear your recommendations for this problem. This is a great public service..thanks again!
