What Could Be Causing My Hip Pain Despite Treatment for Hip Flexor Tendinitis?

I went to the doctor and they said I had hip flexor tendinitis. I took a steroids for 6 days and I am now taking a non steroid for 30 days. My hip flexor pain has gone away I think because I used to hardly be able to walk because I was in so much pain. But now I can hardly run without pain. I can’t figure out if it’s still my hip flexor or if it’s a pinched nerve in my hip, maybe my femoral nerve or if it’s my IT band. My pain stems from my right hip which I think is inflamed. Whenever I try to lift my leg while sitting down it feels dead weight almost. A pain shoots from my hip all the way down to the side of my shin.

It does sound like you may be having some other condition other than hip flexor tendinitis. It is better to see a orthopedist so that you can get a proper diagnosis. They may suggest advanced imaging tests or diagnostic procedures for your pain source.
