I have had chronic RIGHT hip pain or more specifically muscle spasm of all hip girdle musculature for the last 3-5 years. 

The most debilitating symptom is high level pain with walking (every step) and an inability to stand erect during exacerbations.

I have had hip x-rays and MRI which does without evidence of hip joint pathology. I have had cortisone trigger point therapy and pain management hip injection without positive results.

I manage with repetitive icing, heat and stretching but am looking for a functional strategy.
