Have you ever had hip tendonitis?

Abductor inflammation or injury is typically due to overuse. "Overuse" is, of course, relative to age, condition, activity involved, etc.

I think I did have it, for quite a long time, and it was from an injury, plus overuse, and general wear and tear, given I'm in middle age (osteoarthritis). Much of this was sports related (running, mountain biking, and figure skating). As part of the diagnosis, x-rays and an MRI indicated I have dysplasia, which is a congenital defect of the hip. It can contribute to imbalances leading to turned/sprained ankles, barky knees and over time, bad hips. I got cortisone shots to deal with the worst of it, but after a while I decided it was time to pull the trigger.

Solution: hip replacement. I'm now three months out from surgery and it's fabulous. Very little down time; I highly recommend.

I sit too much. When I do move, much of me, especially below my pelvis, aches. I have a bad knee. Six months of (possibly inept) physical therapy (and my lack of home-side efforts) left my knee pain the same or worse.
I live in flatlands and hate to hike here. It's not like Zion and the west. No matter how much I try to improve, being closer to 65 than 60 sucks.

I blame too much athletic sex.

Actually, I might have it now. Sharp pain at the top of the right hip bone on waking and after exertion, for the last couple weeks. My wife is a PTA, she says if it doesn’t go away soon, I have to go see an ortho doc.
