Answer #1

I would get it checked. If you damage your hip, you’re only option is an artificial hip - major surgery that has to be repeated every 10-15 years.

Answer #2

Agree with toadaly - and let me add that hip surgery is NO FUN. I’m still trying to learn to walk and stand straight again, almost one year later. (OK, my age and diagnosis are different from yours - but the point remains: hip surgery is a major thing.)
