take steps to reduce pain and other symptoms:

• Create a weight loss plan if you have overweight or obesity. This will help limit the amount of pressure on your hip.
• Avoid activities that make the pain worse.
• Wear flat, comfortable shoes that cushion your feet.
• Try low-impact exercises like biking or swimming.
• Always warm up before exercising, and stretch afterward.
• If appropriate, do muscle-strengthening and flexibility exercises at home. A doctor or physical therapist can give you exercises to try.
• Avoid standing for long periods of time.
• Take NSAIDs when necessary, but avoid taking them for a prolonged time.
• Rest when necessary, but remember that exercise will help keep your hip strong and flexible.

Takeaway

Hip pain that’s worse when you stand or walk can often be treated with home remedies. However, if your pain is serious or lasts more than a week, see a doctor. They can help you find the right treatment and make lifestyle changes to cope with chronic hip pain if necessary.
