In my experience, persistent joint pain can be mitigated by working the muscles that pad that joint.
Consider doing some yoga or basic tai-chi that will stretch the region that is in pain. As you move through forms and poses you will figure out which muscle or muscle group needs to be strengthened and you will find movements that work it.
I’ve got some gnarly arthritis so my joints are always inflamed. Yoga helps me to keep the muscles strong enough to power through the inflammation without pain, though with arthritis it always hurts a little 🥲
Thanks for the advice. I actually do yoga and am permanently doing Physical Therapy for my other hip (since doctors said there’s nothing physically wrong with it), so I guess I’ll just keep at it. I also have to remember to actually rest the area when it’s so injured that I’m limping… 😅
