I had hip bursistis, too. Tried PT, different medications, cortisone injections. Eventually had surgery 2 years ago to remove the offending bursa. The Drs said it was a 50-50 chance that the pain would be gone. Well, no pain currently. It may come back, but so far, so good. its helped to do specific exercises to strengthen the area, and to limit repetitive motion that affectst that area. Good luck to you in doing what you need to.
