A member asked:
Had some doctors say i may have chronic appendicitis and 1 said it could be my hip, the x-ray was inconclusive and i've been stretching me hip no help?

X-rays will: generally only show bone abnormalities, and are not sensitive for soft tissue abnormalities. Hip MRI would be much more sensitive at detecting abnormalities that might cause pain. Chronic appendicitis is not common, and some doubt that it even exists.
