Has your GP referred you on for some physiotherapy treatment or any other conventional treatment?
Symptoms can often resolve with a combination of rehab and pain management, however if your symptoms are over 3 months (chronic stages) you may benefit from visiting an Orthopaedic Specialist to establish any further appropriate treatment.... hope this has helped.
