Specializes in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation

Hip Pain: Hip pain in a 16 year old is very unusual. Would definitely have it evaluated. Recommend that you see a sports medicine trained physician or orthopedic surgeon. Find out why you hurt and endeavor to control the suffering.

Hip pains: Considering your age of 16 and the intensity of pain you need further evaluation by an orthopedist or rheumatologist with xrays and other investigations as indicated by clinical exam.
