Ok, I know I post lots of daft stuff but this is serious and I really need your lovely people advice.
So, I may or may not have mentioned that I have had this awful pain in my right leg for weeks and weeks, if not months now. I can only describe it as a deep, internal pain, going from hip, through thigh all way down to knee. Leg looks fine, doesn’t hurt to touch whatsoever, but like I said it’s an ‘internal throbbing pain’ to the point that I almost feel sick- I can’t cope with it much longer. I haven’t fallen, tripped, I’m not over weight - far from it. I’ve not done anything at all. Yes I’ve rang my doctor, but due to Covid appointments are a no no - everything is a ‘telephone consultation’. He just gave me these daft exercises to do daily, which I’ve done but haven’t made any difference at all.
I’m pretty good with pain but I’m honestly struggling now - it’s just this deep throbbing pulsating pain and I just don’t know what to do. Pls any suggestions as to what it might be would be very very appreciated right now x

however, if the xray shows osteoarthritis of the hip, there may be no point doing that

X ray done.Radiographer did both hips for comparison. In meanwhile doctor has prescribed Tramadol for pain and ibuprofen gel to apply. Still in just as much pain but have only taken one dose of each so far. Will see how I am tomorrow as I don’t think I can cope with this for another 10 days which is how long they reckon the x ray results will take.
