Visually, the leg appears twisted outward.
Have you tried twisting the leg inward?
That’ll be £200 please settle with my assistant on the way out thank you.
Not a medical doctor. Have had a lot of injuries, so know a bit about describing pain. Please take everything I say with a grain of well-intentioned salt, and don’t cause yourself pain if you don’t know the answer to any question.
So it’s a slow onset, not very localised, burning sensation when you sit, correct? Any trauma? Is it easy to predict or is it random? It it possibly influenced by accumulated effort or positioning during the day? Does your ITB or any muscles feel painful to the touch at rest?
Might not help you, but I developed an odd pain in the 9, 10:30 and 12 o’clock positions of my left leg, near the iliac crest. It happened when walking, cycling or sometimes sitting, and would cause me to limp it became so painful. I figured out it was the waist band of my trousers that was impinging on my TFL / hip flexors. Pulling my waist band up and using slacker slacks resolved it.

Good q; no immediate sharp pain, but a growing burning sensation, without any specific point or increase when I press the location, which is around the bony outside of right hip joint (nothing on groin side). This is what makes me think it’s inflammation under the itb, plus it’s calmed by ibuprofen. Bursitis comes up a bit when I search
Also sensation of clicking/grinding in the joint, but zero pain from this. Visually, the leg appears twisted outward.
It’s so bad and I’m so frustrated with waiting (2+ years) I’m looking into private options, but want to properly establish what’s going on before dropping £££ for initial consultation. Thanks for any advice
