I have been having severe hip and leg pain, to the point I use a cane to walk with. It is the left hip and leg, I am unable to sit and my leg will lock if I do sit. I have taken ibuprofen no relief and I just started taking 2 Aleve in the am with no relief. this has been going on for 6 months
Tithe cause of your pain could be from spine or from the hip. A screening of these will help to come to a cause. The second thing is that using a cane is good idea. But long term use of ibuprofen is not good. Better takes paracetamol.
