I’m 15 and for the last week I’ve had terrible pains in my right hip. It hurts more when I’ve sat down for a long time. Standing on one leg (right leg) hurts the hip so much. Walking upstairs is unbearable.
I checked for sciatic nerve but I don’t have shooting pains in my leg! It’s just the hip and sometimes in my butt when i sit down but hardly ever.
The pain is going down now, but could it come back and could it be hip arthritis?
The doctor told me that my symptoms are a mystery and that i should just take pain killers…how useless!!!

It could be a hip stinger, where some nerves got hit and its causing pain from that area. It happens if you have fallen on your hip maybe?
It could also be a bone spur in your hip, which is basically like a bony projection which forms along the joint. It could be from an excess of calcium buildup.
Or, it could be muscle damage. You have muscles called the lateral rotators, gluteals, and adductor muscles all in your hip. If you pulled one of those or tore it, it would be painful.
At your age, I doubt it’s arthritis. It’s rare, but possible to get arthritis at your age, but I wouldn’t jump to that conclusion yet. If anything, go to the doc and have it xrayed. Then you’ll know if there is any bone damage.
