A member asked:
My son runs track and has been having pain in his left upper hip since monday, do you think this can be an overuse injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rest, Check shoes: Hip pain is not expected in a healthy 20 y/o runner. Rest and treat the current symptoms with mild anti-inflammatory meds bought over-the-counter. Consider/re-adjust any recent changes in routine, equipment or running conditions. While doing this, ask coach or trainer to measure leg lengths. If different, consult podiatrist for shoe inserts to balance strike force. Befriend local orthropod MD.
