Find a yoga instructor or tv lessons or a book. you will not need meds if you work it out and relax it....

It comes when it is ready. You didn't say if you ever had hip pain before you were pregnant? That would help to know. You didn't say if you had ever fallen on that hip when you were younger- bicycle or horse riding? The weight of pregnancy would aggravate the old injury. Is there anything you do just before the pain starts? Sleeping ? too much walking? sitting too long? What happens if you get in a hot hot bath? How about a bath filled with ice? You have to experiment. Everyone's body is different. There is often a "rebound" effect from pain pills. YOu feel better for a while then worse when they wear off. It is almost a blessing that they don't work for you. What happens if you exercise as soon as you feel the first "twinge" of pain? Can you walk with crutches and "carry" that leg? You may need more exercise than you are getting and that makes the pain worse. Do you have crutches? If not , a neighbor will have some- don't buy them. At 21 you wouldn't normally have arthritis unless it runs in your family. Does it? I hope you have a happy, healthy baby and your hip pain ends when you stop carrying around another human being. keep this in mind when you think about future pregnancies. Remember how much it hurt. You will forget in a few years. Pain doesn’t care about birthdays. It comes when it is ready. You didn’t say if you ever had hip pain before you were pregnant? That would help to know.
