Popped hip

Asked for Male, 25 years

I recently popped my hip while in gym. It really hurts and my parents won’t take me to a doctor saying applying ice is the only way. I have a competition coming up and I have started elevating and icing it but it’s still very tender. Is there anything else I can use to help prevent the popping and allow me to move without pain? Please help

Dear Patient,

This seems like a sprain. For sprains one should RICE:
-Rest the affected area as much as possible
-Ice it to stop any potential bleeding
-Compress it using pressure bandage allowing gentle but firm pressure that will Not stop blood from freely flowing to the lower areas
-Elevate it above the level of your heart so that blood can flow easily.
Apply voltral gel to that area three times a day n keep covered. Eat ponstan forte one tablet in morning n night for 1 week
It should settle down with these
For swelling, redness, warmth- see the doc.
