                        I have hip bursitis in both my hips.  I have had several cortisone shots with limited and temporary relief.  I take 25mg of vioxx and do my stretches daily.  While these help my condition, they have in no way cured it.  I asked my doctor if I could take 50mg of vioxx but she said it is risky because it can cause liver problems.  I am in my 30's and feel as if I am in my 70's, some days.  If anyone has any other suggestions to help my hip bursitis, I would greatly appreciate them.
