Check this out!: It was written in 1999 so not up to date with latest surgical interventions, but if you're like most people and are not quite looking for a surgical solution, you should give this a serious look: http://www.Amazon.Com/heal-your-hips-prevent-surgery/dp/0471249971.

Avoid running!: Bicycling is great, but avoid lower extremity loading activities. Remember, avoid concussive activity. Keep in mind that degenerative arthritis or inflammatory arthritis can, in some people cause more stiffness than pain. You may end up seeing your doctor and getting a simple ap-pelvis and some blood tests (crp).
