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.
Yes I m having I think hip, but it s not associated with my joints. It seems it s in the muscle surrounding the hip. It swells and feels like there is a pocket swelling . Heat makes it worse. It s hard to,describe. I ve had this for at least a month. Thank you
First of all it's sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, it can be muscular spasm or cellulitis or soft tissue inflammation.
It's better to get it reviewed by your primary care physician or a surgeon. Meanwhile using OTC analgesics like acetaminophen or Ibuprofen can be helpful.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
