Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Need relief from bursitis (hip) pain, this has been going on for 11 years I have been to two pain clinics they just suggested narcotics was very difficult to withdrawal from that use do not wish to have narcotics in my system again pain is Extreme shuts down my day seriously need help
For you, I would recommend nerve blocks of the hip. It is better you go to a pain clinic which is run by anesthesiologists like me. They are the best doctors to give nerve blocks for relief.
You can even take steroid shots if narcotics are addictive to you. Usually, they are specialized in pain medicine and will treat you better than anybody could.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Archana
