Hello i`m female aged 44 and have degenerative disc disease , fibromyalgia and also (had a recent updated set of mri scans) a rotator cuff tear in my right hip ,where i also have a bursitis? The hip hurts like crazy ,despite trying to remain active and excersize..But the hip now has a dent inwards ,is this due to the pre exsisting probs i have? And what can i do to relieve the pain.(im on morphine (zomorph) from my gp already///thankyou
Hi The pain you are having is due to degenerative disc change and the fibromyalgia. Morphine is a very good painkiller and the pain should relieve with that but if not you can also try antidepressants like amitriptyline which have good painkilling effecting by block the neurotransmitters. Talk to your GP about steroids as they have got very good anti-inflammatory effects Thanks regards
