<s>[INST] About 5 months ago i noticed pain in my left hip at night when going to bed and would have to walk it out when getting out of bed in the morning. The pain would subside shortly after getting up. This pain has gotten progressivly worse and is constant, and has spread to my groin and front thigh. At times its a dull achy deep pain and at other times feels sharp in my hip and groin area with a deep throbbing in my thigh. I get no relief when lying down. The pain is still there and sometimes have to lift my leg with my hands to try and find a more comfortable position. The pain gets so bad at times that it causes me to limp. I've noticed the hip and groin area, more the groin, is becoming tender. Can you please help me out with this. I'm so tired of being in pain.
