Hip problems after being in a car accident

Hi there

Firstly I'm currently 24 years old.
Last year January I was hit by a car. I had a double Craniotomy and was in a coma for 10 days Which was obviously the biggest consequence of the accident.
But now, more than a year later, through some movements, like dancing or exercising, my hip hurts quite a lot. Walking, running, riding a bike is no problem, but exercising and dancing, its really quite painful. (I'm extremely unfit anyway....which is what I'm trying to change, so in addition to muscle pain from exercising, I have the hip pain during my efforts to exercise)
I'm extremely fuzzy on the details now as I was completely drugged up and loopy at the time and am not sure who to contact about it now but I'm really quite sure that it never required surgery, my husband has confirmed that. It was a fracture but no broken bones. Like a crack in the bone? It was seen when they did a full body scan while I was still unconscious. I would like to know if it is possible for it to heal completely and what I can do to achieve that....
Thanks so much in advance

If there is no issue with the xray and you still feel the pain, you'd better go for a hip pain treatment. Physio Now in Mississauga is where I underwent the treatment.

Hey Caitlin312, sorry to hear about your accident. I think you need to take an xray of your hip in and get a good doctor to take a look at it, otherwise you will just keep wondering and worrying about the pain. I too had an accident 6 months before, there weren't any fractures shown in xray but I felt severe pain. I got relief in the coming days as I underwent a hip pain treatment in a clinic in Mississauga. That was so effective for me. Anyway, I would suggest you to take an xray in the first place.
