@Rarebear What’s the treatment?
If the diagnosis doesn’t result in any treatment it’s a waste of her money and the dose of radiation (from an X-ray). If the treatment is the same for bursitis, pull, sprain, then it doesn’t matter. Like if stabilizing the knee will help for instance. Maybe some ibuprofen. I have no idea about bursitis treatment, I’m just guessing and generalizing.
I have pain in my hip for months now, and I can’t imagine the doctor can do anything for it so I haven’t gone to the doctor. Maybe I’m wrong. If it hurt constantly I probably eventually would go to rule out something awful like bone cancer, but admittedly I would probably wait longer than prudent. I always say I’ll die one day avoiding the doctor.
