A member asked:

Mild to moderate osteoarthritis in hip. would this be causing pain in hip .my dr says too mild to cause pain. can l prevent oa from getting worse?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Osteoarthritis: OA of hip can cause pain and people have different threshold of pain tolerance. Exercise and weight loss can be a good starting point to prevent worsening. Good luck.
