Hip tendonitis

Options
how are you guys? Been to urgent care today , 3 days in a row this pain in my lower pelvic is bothering me. So i went to see a doctor and after some interviews and physical exams i was told that the pain is due to tendonitis. Anyone experiencing this? Or also having the same problem?
Thank you and God bless.

    Tendonitis is difficult to deal with. Do you have a specialist to see for rehab perhaps?

    I think I might. For a couple of days, my left hip was killing me. Went and got an anti inflammatory shot, and it got better. Now its stiff a lot of the time. Sitting and bending hurts a little.

    If they tell you to rest it, rest it. I didn't when I first had it (was on a hiking holiday) and ended up with ongoing pain for years. Pissed off tendons usually need a rest, anti-inflammatories, physio (exercises plus maybe u/s and perhaps that shockwave that inca is talking about) and sometimes a cortisone injection if all else fails.
