                        I don't know if this will help, but I had hip bursitus and couldn't sleep on one side at night--couldn't run or exercise much.  Then my hb read about a vet who cured this problem with a vitamin: Ester C. Evidently, people couldn't afford to get hip replacements for their dogs and he saved them with this. I can testify it works in humans--no more hip or lower back pain!! Article on internet--you could find it with Google maybe.  It actually heals hip dysplasia!  Not just covering up a symptom.
