Thank you
@Carriemay60. The ibuprofen seems to be helping. Its not been a medication I have used at all and I think 3 a day is the max to take so I am taking it with a tyenlol each time.
I can't believe this pain!
My hip is doing really well so that is one good thing.
I believe I did something to it in the pool the one day I was in the water aerobics class not doing water aerobics but visiting with the ladies I have been in the class with for 16 years. I had done a nice swim with no pain and then went over to where they were working out. They all talk during the class so its not a heavy work out.
I have been so so careful since day 1 of my hip surgery to not twist or do anything fast and maybe I just was treading water or something and not concentrating. It came on slow.
Its unbelievable this pain. Especially getting out of bed or out of a chair.
Its acute so hopefully will just settle down if I have twisted something. It reminds me of my torn meniscus pain. Once on the proper meds that didn't need surgery as after a few weeks I was able to stop meds and walk fine. I guess I will get an X-ray to see what it is and maybe go on Meloxicam or Dicoflucinac or something for a short period.
This is my good knee and I have never ever had a fall or pain in the left hip or left knee. 4 falls on right knee over my life then the right hip arthritis.
Yikes..scary. I'll keep you all posted. Thanks for caring.
