QUESTION: How do your hips feel after trying these tips? I'd love to hear about it!

Thanks much appreciated this so much putting the pillow to get that comfortable sleep Blessings 🙌 😴 🙏

Thank you for sharing, I have hip bursatis in my right hip and an herniated disc and sciatica in my left leg, I've used a pillow under my legs but still pain through sciatica, would of been good if I don't have a bulged disk then I can sleep on the left. I have put a pillow under my legs when I sleep on my back with the sciatica.

Unfortunately can't sleep on the other side, will try the 2 pillows.

Thank you for something so very simple to try. I'm going to use a thick pillow tonight, and I'll see if it works.

Informative 👍

Thanks for watching, John!

I put your recommendation to sleep with two pillows between my legs into practice a month ago or so, and it made a big difference!! For me, it was an 80% solution that worked immediately. I still can't sleep on that side all night, or my hip would bother me. But, when I rotate between sides, the discomfort in my hip is greatly minimalized by the two pillows between my legs, and I can fall asleep quickly. That's all I need!! Thank you!!! Very much appreciated!!!

Thanks Sayed! Hope it helped!

I will try this. My lateral hip pain ironically doesn’t occur with walking but mostly with when I’m sitting in my car seat for awhile. I have to wonder if it’s trochanter bursitis or hip tendinitis? What is the difference? How can I know. Palpating lateral and anterior aspects produces pain that strangely starts to disparate the longer I massage area with knuckle.

Hey Scott! Trochanteric bursitis is the inflammation of the bursa which is a fluid filled sac on top of that bony bump on the side of your hip. Tendinitis is the inflammation of the tendon of a muscle. If it’s gluteus medius tendinitis, it would also hurt on the side of the hip. Gluteus medius tendinitis is usually associated with bursitis, which is why I think they’re starting to call it greater trochanteric pain syndrome. Trying to press on it will likely aggravate it, so massaging it is not recommended. The way I help patients get better is by having them sleep like this and then strengthening the gluteus medius muscles. Hope this info is helpful!

As a hip pain sufferer, I can say...good tips!!

Thanks Dr. Greta! I hope it helps!

What if both sides hurt

what about if it's my ankle that hurts from side sleeping?

Hey Katherine! That’s interesting. Maybe a full body pillow that would support your entire leg might help

I have pain on the side that I don’t sleep on. A pillow makes it hurt more. I have tingling sensation around the hip and buttocks.

Hey Claire, it could possibly be coming from your back. If it is, lying on your side with a pillow underneath your ribs to make your spine more aligned might help. Lying on the other side might help too. Or lying on your back with a pillow or two under your knees might help.

Hi Dev! How to sleep after a hip replacement? If it’s fairly recent, then probably on your back and ask your surgeon or physical therapist. If it’s been a long time since the surgery, then it may be ok to sleep on your side but definitely with a pillow or two between your legs like the video shows. Hope that helps!

My hip hurts when I'm trying to go to sleep ;(

Hey Yaacov, sorry about your hip.. Hopefully the tips in the video help! Also possibly doing some gluteus medius and maximus exercises may help fix it too.

...even using a pillow doesn't seem to help , and 2 pillows not an option. Makes it feel worse. I wake up EVERY DAY in pain ,just from not having slept well.

Hey @texassstardust6010! Sorry to hear about your hip. Another possibility is that it could be coming from your back. But I couldn't say for sure. Probably best to see a doctor and/or physical therapist to get the more accurate personalized guidance.

@thedurablebody thank you for your reply...and yes, it was figured out that it is coming from an area in my back, which is getting better, just a process. It was suggested that I use a pillow under my knees, sleep on my back... and that is helping. Also using a moist heat heating pad. :) Also,I realized that I didn't have a lot of pain when I was using a Heated Mattress Pad, despite 3 injuries to the same side ( the right side ) of my body... so I'll be also be going back to using that . Thank you again for taking the time to reply.
