Please I am suffering from osteo arthritis of the hip which resulted from playing excess football. Its been a year since it started and am just 17. I have been on anti inflammatory drugs for so long but they only make me feel better. Please I need a permanent cure.

Hi lybrate-user, kindly do x-rays of pelvis with both hips ap and frogleg view. Do blood tests to rule out arthritis as a cause. If still no reason is found you can go for mri of pelvis. In the meantime avoid sitting cross-legged or squatting.
