Hip pain, gets worse when standing and walking. sitting or lying down provides relief. had it for about 3 days, tonight left hip is very sore and numb to the touch.

Hip pain: I assume there has been no recent injury, sprain or overuse to explain the hip discomfort. Most likely possibilities are bursitis or arthritis. If the hip is definitely tender, bursitis is more likely. Resting , alternating cold and semihot applications and a one week course of anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprofen or naproxen should be effective for bursitis and temporarily for arthritis.
