Misaligned hips?

Just wondered if anyone else has it?
I'm starting to suspect I do, as I noticed I have pain in my right hip if I take the weight off it and when I'm laying on my back, it takes me ages to get up and it's almost impossible to roll over because it hurts.
I also noticed that I rotate very very slightly when I do rising trot. I've heard it's common in horse riders.
I'm booking a visit to the doctors soon.
 
i have twisted hips, doc pretty much told me id need physio and then proceeded to say i must go private, i cant afford it so its just having to wait, despite me not being able to run straight or pick my daughter up :( hope it goes better for you at the docs.
 
Your doctor won't really be able to do anything themselves. They will - or should - direct you to an osteopath (and a decent one really can make all the difference, believe me). It's worth finding out if your PCT supplies osteo treatment on the NHS as some do (mine doesn't :rolleyes:). If yours does, your doctor will be able to refer you. If not, they should be able to recommend a good local one or you could try http://www.osteopathy.org.uk/information/finding-an-osteopath/
 
Thanks guys!
Sorry to hear that Nixxyz! I really hope they can refer me to an NHS place, because I don't think I could afford it either, with my driving lessons/test :( I've had pain for about 8 months, but it's really starting to affect my day to day life!
 
I have this problem too, I have been seeing a chiropractor and it's made the world of difference, however it's starting to become expensive at £40 a time, and I had been wondering if I could get any NHS treatment. Might be worth investigating!
