Hip pain that has been here for months suddenly worsened. should i get to the er?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ER visit: No reasonable physician can correctly answer that question without an exam. If pain is so severe that you are concerned for life or limb, then yes! and immediately! if this is the same old pain, just worse after some activity, and you've not tried a tylenol (acetaminophen) or aleve, rest, or ice, then probably not. This is a call you are going to need to make.
