Question about hip discomfort?!
Question: Question about hip discomfort.?
For the past several months I have been experiencing some discomfort in my hips. The right one bothers me the most. I sleep on my side and sometimes I will wake up with the discomfort. I roll over on my back and after a few minutes my hips are fine. I was wondering if it could be a bad mattress. My mattress is I think is around 10 years old. I have heard of people having back or neck pain from a bad mattress, I guess it is possible.
One other problem is if I am walking allot for example going shopping and walking around for 30 minutes to an hour my hips will bother me again.
I was not even sure this would help, but I decided to start stretching my hip flexor muscles. It could be in my mind but I notice when my hips bother me and I do some stretches and they will quit hurting. My question is what is going on with my hips. A few tidbits I do not work so I am not standing on my feet. I am not flat footed either. I am not over weight and I am 35. Most of my activities consist of yard work and walking my dogs. I am thinking maybe I have tight hip flexors or maybe not, I am not sure.?Health Question & Answer
