I Was Playing Soccer And I Twisted To Kick The Ball In Mid-air. When I Landed I Had A Very Sharp Pain In My Hip Joint
Hi, 6 weeks ago I was playing soccer and I twisted to kick the ball in mid-air. When I landed I had a very sharp pain in my hip joint. Two weeks later the pain moved down my leg into my thigh muscle (quite deep in). Since then it has been extremely painful and I don t know what to do, please help me.

Hi,
Hearing your problem,it seems to me that it could be hip ligament injury or lumbar disc prolapse. You have to do a X-ray and MRI both for hip joint and lumbar spine. Do not delay.
Take care.
