I have hip dysplasia and i am 41 years old what can i take for the pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ibuprofen: Ibuprofen or similar NSAID would be the best option for hip dysplasia w/ secondary osteoarthritis pain. Occassionally if one NSAID is not helpful your treating physician may try a different one.( not @ the same time). Narcotic pain medication is NOT a good option. Best of Luck.
