Dodgy hip joint

mounteney

I have a "worn" hip joint and am in the queue for a replacement. I am not immobile but find that my hip joint (and Knee) become uncomfortable after a, variable, period of time -- nothing new there, I guess.

I find that pressing the palm of my hand on to the joint helps quite a bit and wondered what device(s) might be available to replicate the effect?

Has anyone tried anything? please inform.
