Over the years I have kept my core strong and stretched my legs and hips out every day. It does help. I do hope the pain ends for you too :)

Oh, dear. I'm so sorry to hear about this. I hope you spring back to good health and being pain-free soon. I had that before and it felt like the pain would never end. :(
