hye everyone just thought i would post a hello to everyone as i myself suffer with rheumatoid arthritis, and have done for a few years now when i read some of the topics on the site i thought i would join in for some support and help from you all. i have this terrible burning pain in my hip and it doesnt feel like my arthritis pain. it lasts a few days then goes away and then all of a sudden its back . just wondered if anyone had any idea what this might be.

thanks and hello again

    Hi Tracey
    I have OA in both my hips but its not a burning pain that I have with my condition, and as far as I know thats not a symptom of OA but hopeully someone out there will be able to help you more with your particular problem.

    Hi Tracey
    Welcome to forum
    I too have RA, I get hip pain but its more of an inside ache than a burning feeling athough i do get a burning feeling in my shoulder sometimes along with the pain, i think with me its inflamtion. prob best to ask your GP or rhumey.
    I ve had RA for about a year now but was only diagnosed few weeks ago, so still getting used to it all. this forum has been so helpful to me and sure it will be to you :)
    best wishes

    Hi Tracey

    Welcome to the forum. I am sorry to hear about your burning pain in the hip. Do you think it may be bursitis? Others on here do suffer or have suffered from bursitis of the hip, so may well be able to help you if this could be part of your problem.

    I joined around 2 years ago and find the site quite addictive! I usually look in every day or I get withdrawal symptoms :D:lol::lol:

    I hope you get a diagnosis for your discomfort soon.

    Luv
    Elna

    Hi Tracey

    There is always room for another experienced "painy".

    I have recently started having pains in my knees too but it's only when i bend to sit down/kneel down or bend them to stand up.

    I was wondering if it is the strain from putting more weight on them since my back problems.

    I hope you get some relief soon. :)

    Hi I have OA in my hips and spine ect. Most of the pain is an aching type of pain, but I have a compressed nerve in my neck and that sometimes feels hot and sharp. Maybe you have some nerve involovment, that can cause all sorts of pains and sensations.

    Glad you've found the site. :) Hope you soon get that burning pain sorted. :wink: Love Sue

    Sounds like the pain I get in my hips which is bursa pain...inflammation that doesn't always show up in blood tests. Is it worse when you lie on that side? If so that is typical of bursa pain. ALways worth asking your Dr though as some people have injection that helps if it is really bad. Welocme to the site..it is an amazing thing to feel supported.
