Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe hip pain. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, bursitis, hip labral tear, sprains and strains, tendinitis, herniated disk, sciatica or spinal stenosis. I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination. Doctor may order CT scan or MRI along with physical examination like movement of joint. Doctor may recommend physical therapy along with anti-inflammatory, muscle relaxant. Doctor may also recommend surgery in case of severe damage. For now do stretching exercises, take proper rest, apply warm compresses to joint ant take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
