You poor thing!!!! I have a bad hip so I can sympathise. I know how much it can hurt and it's terrible when nothing can take the pain away.

The best thing I can recommend is that you rest it as much as possible for now and try to alternate between the ice and the heat pads. Also see if you can take some good, strong painkillers.

In the meantime, I really hope it starts to feel better. I don't know if you have ever been to see a chiropractor but they can be very helpful and give a lot of information on how to treat pains such as yours. Otherwise, if you haven't already been sent for it, physiotherapy could work brilliantly, so you might want to discuss that option with your doctor as it can work wonders in the long run.

I'm so sorry for the pain you are in. I know it hurts but try to cope through it because you know it will get better. If you need to talk at all, please feel free to contact me.

I have knee problems too. Iwent to an orthopedic doctor and he suggested physical therapy. If your problems have been going on for a long time, it might be a good idea!! If this injury JUST happened

-keep wearing the brace
-keep icing it
-once you see an improvement then use a heating pad
