Bursitis and hip pain

Have you tried ice, or alternating ice and heat, concentrating on the sorest points?
Also, since you have known necrosis, did you have any imaging after your fall to see what might have been damaged?
One thing I learned when I had bursitis in my hip was to avoid the sofa and soft chairs - seems counterintuitive, but a firm chair with firm contoured cushion actually helped the pain.
I wish you luck in getting through this.

Thanks for the response. I did have xrays taken after the fall and no damage to the hip was detected. I have tired ice/heat, but no lasting effect from from either…and also PT, but will be starting another round of PT. Was your bursitis due to a hip replacement? And long did it take until you felt some relief? Thnx
