Good afternoon, So....we both have an angry bursa. My orthopedic surgeon for my recent TKR said the same thing...no surgery unless it doesn't respond to other options.
I had a cortisone injection about 4 weeks ago. It works in a here today, gone tomorrow manner. Seems like every time I think I can count on it to let me walk a couple of miles, it rears its painful head and says "No way...not today." Where do you get the Diclotenac topical? I have been using medical cannabis....for acute pain.
May you be safe, protected, and free from suffering.

Yes - I have experienced that difficulty with walking, so frustrating. I have chronic kidney disease which the dr speculates was caused by taking ibuprofen too often for the hip pain. So it was a prescription given to me by the ortho in stead of taking ibuprofen. I don't understand why doctors don't regularly prescribe that so people don't end up damaging their kidneys.
