I have AVN in my left hip. Based on my last MRI in March, it hasn’t collapsed yet. Normally, I can get around with minimal pain but my range of motion is very limited (ex. I can’t sit cross legged, that movement and direction is very painful).
I did a lot of crafting on the floor yesterday and today, I’m in extreme pain. I can walk very slowly but certain movements give a very bad shock of pain if I step the wrong way, walk up an incline, go upstairs, or raise my leg (like to get up into the drivers seat of a truck). This has happened once before and I was on crutches for a week, I couldn’t bear weight at all. After a week, it almost magically got better.
Has anyone had this happen? Does this mean my hip collapsed? Any recommendations for what to take or do (advil, baths with epsom salt, ice, weed, stretches, sleeping positions, anything!!)? I’m desperate and have a big event coming up that I need to be able to walk and move for.
Thanks for reading!!
