I have suffered from left hip pain for the last 10 years. For the past year the pain extended down the side and to the front of my thigh. So painful I had trouble sleeping. I didn’t know what was wrong until recently when I was dx with bursitis. I’ve Had PT, acupuncture, and a steroid injection, all with no relief . I watched this video and only did the clenching of the buttocks. I could do it lying down, standing and even driving in my car. First thing that happened, pain in my leg went away as the pain in my hip subsided. Tonight I sit here completely pain free. This took 1 week to get relief. I can’t thank you enough. God bless you ❤
Hello, I also have this problem and I was wondering how often you have to do these exercises? a few times a day or would it be enough to do them in the mornings and evenings? thank you
I had THR with bone graft on acetabulum. 6 months after surgery I am experiencing sciatic nerve pain lower right side moving some towards butt. I am familiar with these exercises but wondering if I should try them or wait until I see the surgeon who did my surgery?
@@marlainerose3340 you could call your primary care doctor and see if you can get physical therapy. I would think after 6 months you wouldn’t hurt anything doing the clinching method- but I am not a doctor.
Wow! I’ve had hip bursitis for the past couple of months after damaging tendons in two falls in July and August of this year. I was in a lot of pain and could hardly get out of bed, bend over and do my usual chores. I came across this video and did the exercises. In a couple of days I was virtually pain free and able to move more freely. The change has been so dramatic !Thank you so much !
Amazing. I've had hip Bursitis on and off for the last year...All the exercises I've been doing, are as you say not the correct ones, and I've been doing them wrong. I came across your video and after the first round of these exercises tonight, I already notice a difference. 1st Round!! I must be dreaming. Thank you so much, this has at least lifted my despair even just a tiny amount. I'm so glad I found you
Credit due; A couple months ago, I started having a lot of pain in my right hip to the point where I worried I might need surgery. Found your video and started watching it but got interrupted by something and forgot about it. I saw the video again on my feed a couple weeks later and decided to watch it. After doing these exercises the pain is nearly gone and am back to jogging regularly at least a couple miles. Thanks a lot!

6 years of a dull tedious annoying pain - 3 different physios and they all had me doing the wrong exercises that never helped. I stumbled upon Hip Bursitus and then this video. Can't believe the difference, I've only being doing the exercises 2 days and feel so much better already. Thanks so much!! 😁
Hi Royalukas, that is so awesome to hear! We are thrilled that after 6 months of pain you are now feeling 95% pain-free! We wish you continued relief. Thank you so much for being part of our community! 🙌
God Bless you for helping so many people with your exercises. People like you make life easier for seniors. We have lots of problems as we age. Your help is so appreciated!
Currently in PT for hip bursitis and two of the excercises are used. Clam and bridge. I'm glad I watched this. PT hasn't taught me to roll forward during the clam, nor have they stopped me from going as high on possible on the bridge exercise. And PT definitely doesn't care if I'm only hold for maybe 2 seconds.
Thank you so much.... I have bursitis in my right hip. I started physical therapy a few months ago and only lasted 2 sessions. They had me doing Thera-Band and I was in absolute agony. Thank you for proving me right that Thera-Band was not the way to go with dealing with this hip bursitis. I will now be doing your 3 exercises religiously. I'm so glad I found you. 😊
Found these videos completely unintentionally. I never had hip bursitis until a few years ago when i started having pain when I'd try to go for long walks. Since I have always walked or run long distances, this was devastating. My doctor finally diagnosed the condition but only offered a hip injection. This did work for about 24 hours. I wish I'd found these exercises years ago. I have started doing weight training several months ago, and that has helped enormously. Fortunately the pain is only when i walk.
I have had Hip Bursitis for over 3 years. I broke my femur and had surgery to put a nail in my femur. Went to PT to learn how to walk again which was wonderful...but... then bursitis plagued me. I was told do Clam shells and bridges but...I now see the method I was using was wrong. With the tweaks you demonstrate I can feel the glutes firing. I think this could change the situation for the better. I have tolerated the toothache pain in my hip for years. This should help me to manage it better. Thank you!!!! I am so glad I found you. :)
I was in agony for five weeks. Once I had the mri report I sought some answers on line. I saw Dr. David's videos and they were remarkably helpful. Within 24 hours my pain diminished substantially. I no longer needed to take the anti inflammatory medication. Your hard science approach was the way to go.Thank you Dr.David!!
Again! You have got the best information and detailed demonstration for hip bursitis. Dr David you are truly the man to go to. Love your discussion regarding the issue from A to Z. Your a whiz
Thank you so much for this video. I’ve been suffering from hip pain about a year now. Tried physiotherapy but didn’t get relief from it. I’ve been watching RUclips videos and trying few things but your exercises helped me tremendously. I only did the buttocks tightening exercise and this morning I woke up without hip pain. Bless you 🙏
I’ve neglected doing exercises my hip bursitis for over 8 yrs and now I have arthritis. Since Dec 19 I have severe knee pain but thanks to you Dr David I’m doing the exercises you recommend.and I do have some relief . Thank you 🙏
I’ve got HB and thank god I found your video the exercises are really working and you saved me spending a lot of money on a new car because I thought it was my car that was too low down but I’ll hold on and see what happens ❤
These exercises saved my life! I was to the point of inability to walk without limping and in some cases, severely. I could not get into physical therapy for two weeks and started these exercises. @fromthebayou mentioned doing these while driving. So I started doing them whenever I sat. Did the clamshell while in bed. In two weeks, I am to the point of not only walking but doing over 12,000 steps a day. No limping. THANK YOU!!!
You nailed it! Your suggestions on working the butt muscle and not the TFL (front pocket muscle) were on point. I realize now why I have the pain and the exercises you recommended are helping. I want to thank you for putting these videos on RUclips!
Good advice! Helpful to hear what not to do too! I have had both hips replaced twice now and have had trochanteric pain ever since my last operation here in the UK. If kneeling down and I sit back on my heels I get a lot of discomfort in my glutes next day. When a relative recently had a hip replacement she was told to never sit back on heels when kneeling...no-one ever told me that. I was also given elastic bands to use regularly (ouch!) knowing what not to do is very important too! Thank you.
Awesome instructional video. My husband deals with hip pain. I will do my best to encourage him to do these exercises. Thank you for sharing your expertise in such a caring manner. Be blessed.
You have explained everything so well. Thanks. I especially got benefitted by way you taught to do the bridge, earlier I was picking my butt up too high and had to eventually stop doing them because they had given me right sided mid back plain.
These have brought instantly help and relief. Doing these while consciously breathing in while slowly tensing and breathing out the nostrils while relaxing and being in The breathless state for as per comfort level really does help. Doing a set or 3-5 instantly helped Thank you very much🙏🏼
I’m so glad I found your channel. I have several problems that have gotten worse and was recently prescribes PT for lumbar stenosis, bursitis. Doc wants to do a knee and hip replacement also. I’ll be SO much more informed when I do the PT, plus I’ll have a head start by working on my Core for a couple of weeks before. I’m looking for the 28 days of Core work you mentioned but haven’t found it yet. Definitely need that under my belt. Pushing 80 so maybe a little more tread left on me because of you! Thanks!
Otra vez gracias por la información. Tengo 2 años con el dolor de cadera y el quiropráctico no me ayudó are los ejercicios que usted recomienda muchas gracias. estoy asiendo los ejercicios que usted recomienda para el nervio acuático y me siento mucho mejor Gracias 🙏 bendiciones
Could you please post a video of techniques or exercises to specifically address gluteal tendinopathy (GTPS)? Since so many of the exercises you suggest for knee and hip problems focus on increasing glute strength, this seems to only exacerbate my GTPS and increase my hip pain. But I know I must exercise so that my glutes don't atrophy! Thank you Dr, Middaugh for all your excellent, tireless work in helping me with my knee and hip rehabilitation.
Been suffering from hip bursitis since a decade now and I am really excited to try these three exercises. I have gone to a lot of physiotherapist in this past 10 years and yes all of them have told me to do clams shells but not the way you have said, and they have also told me to use the booty bands which you have prohibited, so I’m really excited to try your way. I am a fitness trainer myself And I don’t know what wrong I did which flared up the pain in my hips. I’m also keen on watching your video where you are talking about how to walk because right now I am in excruciating pain and just got an ultrasound done yesterday I also have started feeling pain in my knees because of the hip pain, so I will be consistently trying your three exercises for the next four weeks thank you so much. Wish me luck.
Your technique of pulling in my gut/core before doing my bridge exercises was a game changer for me! I have si joint dysfunction as my primary dx. I wasn't getting a lot out of the bridges any more until I tried this and wow! I'm sore! And the exercise got deep into my glutes where I really needed it! Thank you so much!!!
Hello, how do you feel now? How long have you been doing the exercises? I also have this problem and doctors are really pessimistic in my area, so I feel devastated.
Bro, I know you made this video two years ago, but I just wanted to let you know that it stands in time as a remarkable piece of instruction and advice. I feel confident in your exclamations in instructions as they jive with what I know thank you and I will be checking out more videos. I hope you’re still doing this and did well. God bless.
Hey, Chris! Thank you so much for sharing this! It makes us really happy to hear these videos have been helping you stay healthy! Here is a playlist on hip bursitis in case you want to learn more. Check it out: “Hip Bursitis Help” ruclips.net/p/PLJVIPiFvv1mbheRRRWNQqDfZ0Hvmyymj9
This is a great educational video. I was speed walking six miles every other day on a country road which included up and down hills, and turns that sloped over for water run off. I was diagnosed four months ago, prescribed two weeks of low dose steroids, no walking, and of course rest. I did better right away. Three months after the diagnosis I was given the go ahead to stroll on a flat surface but my groin gets exhausted, weak, and achy within a minute. I lose power and get stinging afterwards so I obviously stopped. I wasn't happy when you said how long it'll likely take to get better However, I'm' determined. I'll do everything according to your recommendations. You're cheaper than my physical therapist!
the band i was using while using clam technique was making it worse. i dont think im at that level yet to use it. i am happy i found your channel! these exercises are very helpful!
I had a Dr tell me I had bursitis, I've had this pain in my hip for a year and half and because of that I have a herniated disc in my back also. I've been trying to heal two injuries which is stressful because I work a physical labor job and no one wants to believe I'm in a lot of pain. It's affecting every area of my life. I was doing my physical therapy exercises wrong and I did some of these exercises you recommended as I listened too you and I feel my bursitis going away almost instantly, which should help my back problems as well. Thank you so much!!!❤❤❤❤
Thanks for all your help for those of us at home! I love that you are so fit, and that you show us these exercises while wearing jeans - it’s like visiting a friend and suddenly deciding to do some exercises together…to hell with the yoga pants!!💕
I have bursitis on the right side and it hurts a lot. An old knee injury has put my walk out of whack. I checked countless buristis-advice-sites and all of them show young, fit presenters who show you stretch exercises that hurt like hell and I am sure, they would not do those if they had hip bursitis. This is the only site I found that tells you: do not irritate the area even further. The slightly outward feet and walking with the glute muscles tightened helps instantly, although not that easy to do - one tends to forget but the moment one concentrates, the pain lessens immediately. So, thank you! Your exercises help and maybe it will even go away. I have had this before and it took over a year before it subsided. Never had an injection. In my country (Germany) doctors tend to be very cautious about giving cortisone injections or prescribing strong pain medication. I do a lot of gardening and lifting can be difficult as is climbing up the stairs. It hurts a lot. Maybe a video on how to lift heavy weights and walking up the stairs with hip bursitis would be great.
It works. After 12 months of at times excruciating and debilitating pain and unable to weight bare on my right leg, or sleep at night, these butt squeezing exercises along with a good dose of magnesium each nigjt before bed and im almost ready to let go of the crutches, and walking stick.

Great video. I also used ice for 20 minted 3-4 a day and a cane which helps with pain. I did your recommended exercises and have no increase hip pain. I will compliant this week with exercise you recommended- thank you for all your help. Cheers
I'm so excited to try these exercises for my bursitis! I went to Doctor, said nothing could be done except for steroid injections, but I declined as I know that doesn't fix the problem. So I tried these exercises. The clamshell I definitely felt. The Bridge, I felt but the hamstring on right side (where bursitis in hip is located) started spasming. Standing, tightening of the glutes hurts my knee and shin and felt in lower back (same leg with problems). Not sure if I'm doing it right. I think other muscles are engaging and can't isolate just the glutes when standing. I also have a torn labrum and sit bone tendon tear to hamstring. I can' seem to get better. Thank you for the information provided.

You are Awsome. This is how I feel exactly, with pain. Thank you Dr. David for taking the time to share your great knowledge. 🇺🇸 👍⭐️ Going to give it a go.

I over did leg circles and hip openers in Pilates. After several months of doing Pilates, I noticed in early August a nagging left hip/joint pain down the front of my leg. It got so bad that a walking trip I was on I had to stop half way and sit on a bench. BTW, my legs dangled. Did t realize that was the temporary alleviation I needed. No one was able to zero in with this specific problem. I went for stretch therapy combo massage. Felt kind of better but after 2x of myofascia therapy, whoa!!! I felt way out of whack. Then went to chiro, improved but not even close. Found this sight after research. Did the buttocks and the clam shell and the hip raises the way you explained. This past Tuesday was the first day back to my old speeding bullet self. This is a daily routine. Thank you. I shared with my sister who thought she needed hip replacement.
Hey RoseAnne, we are so happy to hear that we were able to help you get back to being a speeding bullet! We love to hear that this has become a daily routine as well! These exercises can help so much with "normal" pains and even prevent surgeries down the road! Thank you for sharing your experience with us and we appreciate your support!

I was told to use a band but had to stop because made worse! Also was doing the clam and bridge/stretch exercises wrong too and just made pain worse so thanks!
Thank you Dr. Medoff! Unfortunately, I have virtually no butt and is probably what is causing the searing pain. I am going to start doing these exercises carefully and consistently.
Thank you! I’m going to start these today! I must exercise everyday for my fibromyalgia and it was getting very painful. This was driving me insane, ow! I hope these help me like they did everyone else here! Thank you again!🙋🏻♀️💖
I can't do the exercises that include laying down because I have spinal stenosis .... BUT I've been doing the standing butt squeezes! I do them whenever I'm standing!!! I no longer have pain when I run my hand (with pressure) passed my hip. None! That's a first in four months. I'm eager to see if I can walk again (eventually back to speed walking). PLEASE don't skip the exercises that are meticulously explained and shown in this video because of this comment. I'm just saying, I was almost better but went stagnant without improvement until now. Do the exercises! Make them a part of your life. They don't take a lot of time, they're not hard to do, and they'll keep you from going through this again. 😊

Ive been in so much pain i could hardly walk! Let alone sleep. Ive seen a physiotherapist and doctor and everything i can think of .. Half an hour after doing this - done No pain
Thank you so much Dr!!!!! I've been diagnosed with hip bursitis. First time I get help that I understand. Except for the clam exercise - I only feel a stretch in front. But I'll just do the other two. Let's see how I am in two weeks!! xx
Hey Beulah! We are sorry to hear that you've been dealing with hip bursitis but we are happy we've made it easy to understand what you can do to possibly help with your situation. The clamshell exercises are harder than it looks so don't give up on them just yet, I would continue to try the modifications that Dr. David explains in the video so that you can increase your chances of feeling it in the right area. So just to reemphasize you might need to roll your torso forward a bit more and stretch the legs out in order to get the glutes engaged. We hope this helps, hope to hear about your progress in 2 weeks! 🤩
I just found out I have this little over a year of hip replacement. What causes it after a hip replacement? I sure will try your exercises. They gave me ones to be on my floor heck I can’t even get off my floor with a bad back lol . Thank you so much 😊

@epmanualphysicaltherapy I was doing very well until last week. I have no clue why I had a flare-up. On August 27th, I had my appointment and decided to try the injection. Sadly, so far, it's not doing anything. Yesterday I called off from work. I couldn't walk. My doctor gave me these different types of exercises, which caused more pain. For example: bending one knee towards the opposite shoulder while laying down with the other leg straight. Irritated my left outer side of the hip.

I have Trochanteric bursitis but it doesn't hurt on the outside where you show in the video. It hurts exactly in the front of the hip, right in front, like a band near the surface right in front, extending a little down the front of the quad. The outside feels fine.
Would it be ok to do these three exercises while I walk the dog? Standing up?? Thank you. I find your videos very good and informative. You have a pleasant voice and excellent presentation skills!
Dear Dr. David! Thank you so very much for the hip exercises. I’ve had this problem since covid years after I retired thinking it’s too much sitting or too much activity on my right hip that’s Wer it hurts. It has relieved the pain and I’m walking better. Thank you and continue to give more videos!

You can access it here: Hip Bursitis Help ruclips.net/user/playlistlist=PLJVIPiFvv1mbheRRRWNQqDfZ0Hvmyymj9 Start with one or two exercises, beginning with the smallest range of motion and the lowest intensity. As you feel stronger, you can gradually increase both the range of motion and intensity. It’s best to do these exercises every day throughout the day. Aim to tire out the muscle without losing form or control. Consistency is key. Always avoid working through pain; soreness and mild discomfort are normal, but pain is not. We hope you found this information helpful to you. We'd love to hear how you are doing as you progress.🙌 Please take care!
I can do the butt exercises,back lift I can do, but I can’t do the clam because I’ve only had a replacement three weeks ago. Thanks for the advice. Mr first hip replacement six months ago is my left hip,it’s the one I have bursitis in. My latest hip replacement was only three weeks ago, it is better than my first one.

Going to try! Have pain in left side. I thought it might be to not having insert in my shoes. Arch pain. Either way going to try this.! Thanks for being on here and sharing your expertise.
I have suffered from left hip pain for the last 10 years. For the past year the pain extended down the side and to the front of my thigh. So painful I had trouble sleeping. I didn’t know what was wrong until recently when I was dx with bursitis. I’ve Had PT, acupuncture, and a steroid injection, all with no relief . I watched this video and only did the clenching of the buttocks. I could do it lying down, standing and even driving in my car. First thing that happened, pain in my leg went away as the pain in my hip subsided. Tonight I sit here completely pain free. This took 1 week to get relief. I can’t thank you enough. God bless you ❤
Hello, I also have this problem and I was wondering how often you have to do these exercises? a few times a day or would it be enough to do them in the mornings and evenings? thank you
@@ЛюбовІванівнаДідик I do it several times a day. Sometimes once a day
I had THR with bone graft on acetabulum. 6 months after surgery I am experiencing sciatic nerve pain lower right side moving some towards butt. I am familiar with these exercises but wondering if I should try them or wait until I see the surgeon who did my surgery?
@@marlainerose3340 you could call your primary care doctor and see if you can get physical therapy. I would think after 6 months you wouldn’t hurt anything doing the clinching method- but I am not a doctor.
This gives me hope! ❤
Wow! I’ve had hip bursitis for the past couple of months after damaging tendons in two falls in July and August of this year. I was in a lot of pain and could hardly get out of bed, bend over and do my usual chores. I came across this video and did the exercises. In a couple of days I was virtually pain free and able to move more freely. The change has been so dramatic !Thank you so much !
Amazing. I've had hip Bursitis on and off for the last year...All the exercises I've been doing, are as you say not the correct ones, and I've been doing them wrong. I came across your video and after the first round of these exercises tonight, I already notice a difference. 1st Round!! I must be dreaming. Thank you so much, this has at least lifted my despair even just a tiny amount. I'm so glad I found you
Credit due; A couple months ago, I started having a lot of pain in my right hip to the point where I worried I might need surgery. Found your video and started watching it but got interrupted by something and forgot about it. I saw the video again on my feed a couple weeks later and decided to watch it. After doing these exercises the pain is nearly gone and am back to jogging regularly at least a couple miles. Thanks a lot!

6 years of a dull tedious annoying pain - 3 different physios and they all had me doing the wrong exercises that never helped. I stumbled upon Hip Bursitus and then this video. Can't believe the difference, I've only being doing the exercises 2 days and feel so much better already. Thanks so much!! 😁
Thank you! I had six months of pain and after using these exercises for a month, I’m 95% pain free.
Doing these correctly is critical!
Hi Royalukas, that is so awesome to hear! We are thrilled that after 6 months of pain you are now feeling 95% pain-free! We wish you continued relief. Thank you so much for being part of our community! 🙌
Thank you. This gives me hope. ❤
God Bless you for helping so many people with your exercises. People like you make life easier for seniors. We have lots of problems as we age. Your help is so appreciated!
Currently in PT for hip bursitis and two of the excercises are used. Clam and bridge. I'm glad I watched this. PT hasn't taught me to roll forward during the clam, nor have they stopped me from going as high on possible on the bridge exercise. And PT definitely doesn't care if I'm only hold for maybe 2 seconds.
Yes same experience at my PT what a waste of money
This is the way. Only exercises that actually fixed my hip pain. Hip bursitis.
Thank you so much.... I have bursitis in my right hip. I started physical therapy a few months ago and only lasted 2 sessions. They had me doing Thera-Band and I was in absolute agony. Thank you for proving me right that Thera-Band was not the way to go with dealing with this hip bursitis. I will now be doing your 3 exercises religiously. I'm so glad I found you. 😊
Found these videos completely unintentionally. I never had hip bursitis until a few years ago when i started having pain when I'd try to go for long walks. Since I have always walked or run long distances, this was devastating. My doctor finally diagnosed the condition but only offered a hip injection. This did work for about 24 hours.
I wish I'd found these exercises years ago. I have started doing weight training several months ago, and that has helped enormously. Fortunately the pain is only when i walk.
I have had Hip Bursitis for over 3 years. I broke my femur and had surgery to put a nail in my femur. Went to PT to learn how to walk again which was wonderful...but... then bursitis plagued me. I was told do Clam shells and bridges but...I now see the method I was using was wrong. With the tweaks you demonstrate I can feel the glutes firing. I think this could change the situation for the better. I have tolerated the toothache pain in my hip for years. This should help me to manage it better. Thank you!!!! I am so glad I found you. :)
Most realistic approach I have seen.
I was in agony for five weeks. Once I had the mri report I sought some answers on line. I saw Dr. David's videos and they were remarkably helpful. Within 24 hours my pain diminished substantially. I no longer needed to take the anti inflammatory medication. Your hard science approach was the way to go.Thank you Dr.David!!
Dr David you have given me so much emotional support as I now Know so much more about this hideous pain. Grateful beyond words. Your amazing!!!
Again! You have got the best information and detailed demonstration for hip bursitis. Dr David you are truly the man to go to. Love your discussion regarding the issue from A to Z.
Your a whiz
Thank you so much for this video. I’ve been suffering from hip pain about a year now. Tried physiotherapy but didn’t get relief from it. I’ve been watching RUclips videos and trying few things but your exercises helped me tremendously. I only did the buttocks tightening exercise and this morning I woke up without hip pain. Bless you 🙏
I’ve neglected doing exercises my hip bursitis for over 8 yrs and now I have arthritis. Since Dec 19 I have severe knee pain but thanks to you Dr David I’m doing the exercises you recommend.and I do have some relief . Thank you 🙏
So glad to hear about you getting relief! You are very welcome 🙏😊
😊
I like the fact that you only give us a few exercises yeah keep it' simple they're working already thank you
WOOOOP!!!!!!
This is fantastic to hear David!!!!
Thank you for updating us on your success!!!!
I’ve got HB and thank god I found your video the exercises are really working and you saved me spending a lot of money on a new car because I thought it was my car that was too low down but I’ll hold on and see what happens ❤
These exercises saved my life! I was to the point of inability to walk without limping and in some cases, severely. I could not get into physical therapy for two weeks and started these exercises. @fromthebayou mentioned doing these while driving. So I started doing them whenever I sat. Did the clamshell while in bed. In two weeks, I am to the point of not only walking but doing over 12,000 steps a day. No limping. THANK YOU!!!
I am in so much pain both hips non stop... worse at night ... trying these tonight 🙏
Thanks to God and this exercises, my pain of hip bursitis is gone. Had done physical therapy before and didn't work.
Thank you 🙏
Thank you, I have been through 2 referrals of PT for this and now I have it in BOTH hips! Going to make my HEP changed now! Thank you
You nailed it! Your suggestions on working the butt muscle and not the TFL (front pocket muscle) were on point. I realize now why I have the pain and the exercises you recommended are helping. I want to thank you for putting these videos on RUclips!
So Glad to hear it helped Tamara.
@@epmanualphysicaltherapy Thankyou for this amazing video!
Good advice! Helpful to hear what not to do too! I have had both hips replaced twice now and have had trochanteric pain ever since my last operation here in the UK. If kneeling down and I sit back on my heels I get a lot of discomfort in my glutes next day. When a relative recently had a hip replacement she was told to never sit back on heels when kneeling...no-one ever told me that. I was also given elastic bands to use regularly (ouch!) knowing what not to do is very important too!
Thank you.
Awesome instructional video. My husband deals with hip pain. I will do my best to encourage him to do these exercises. Thank you for sharing your expertise in such a caring manner. Be blessed.
God bless you Dr David. Your explantions are so thorough.
You have explained everything so well. Thanks. I especially got benefitted by way you taught to do the bridge, earlier I was picking my butt up too high and had to eventually stop doing them because they had given me right sided mid back plain.
These have brought instantly help and relief. Doing these while consciously breathing in while slowly tensing and breathing out the nostrils while relaxing and being in The breathless state for as per comfort level really does help. Doing a set or 3-5 instantly helped
Thank you very much🙏🏼
I’m so glad I found your channel. I have several problems that have gotten worse and was recently prescribes PT for lumbar stenosis, bursitis. Doc wants to do a knee and hip replacement also. I’ll be SO much more informed when I do the PT, plus I’ll have a head start by working on my Core for a couple of weeks before. I’m looking for the 28 days of Core work you mentioned but haven’t found it yet. Definitely need that under my belt. Pushing 80 so maybe a little more tread left on me because of you! Thanks!
Otra vez gracias por la información. Tengo 2 años con el dolor de cadera y el quiropráctico no me ayudó are los ejercicios que usted recomienda muchas gracias. estoy asiendo los ejercicios que usted recomienda para el nervio acuático y me siento mucho mejor Gracias 🙏 bendiciones
Could you please post a video of techniques or exercises to specifically address gluteal tendinopathy (GTPS)? Since so many of the exercises you suggest for knee and hip problems focus on increasing glute strength, this seems to only exacerbate my GTPS and increase my hip pain. But I know I must exercise so that my glutes don't atrophy! Thank you Dr, Middaugh for all your excellent, tireless work in helping me with my knee and hip rehabilitation.
Thanks! The turning out makes all the difference in the world for me.
Been suffering from hip bursitis since a decade now and I am really excited to try these three exercises. I have gone to a lot of physiotherapist in this past 10 years and yes all of them have told me to do clams shells but not the way you have said, and they have also told me to use the booty bands which you have prohibited, so I’m really excited to try your way. I am a fitness trainer myself And I don’t know what wrong I did which flared up the pain in my hips. I’m also keen on watching your video where you are talking about how to walk because right now I am in excruciating pain and just got an ultrasound done yesterday
I also have started feeling pain in my knees because of the hip pain, so I will be consistently trying your three exercises for the next four weeks
thank you so much. Wish me luck.
Looking for the video on how to walk. Please advise.
Your technique of pulling in my gut/core before doing my bridge exercises was a game changer for me! I have si joint dysfunction as my primary dx. I wasn't getting a lot out of the bridges any more until I tried this and wow! I'm sore! And the exercise got deep into my glutes where I really needed it! Thank you so much!!!
Hello, how do you feel now? How long have you been doing the exercises? I also have this problem and doctors are really pessimistic in my area, so I feel devastated.
@@ЛюбовІванівнаДідик there's a lot you can do to help the pain. Look at the channel for Tone and Tighten, he has a lot of si joint exercises.
Hello Bonnie,
So happy to hear it is helping . keep up the good work.
Bro, I know you made this video two years ago, but I just wanted to let you know that it stands in time as a remarkable piece of instruction and advice. I feel confident in your exclamations in instructions as they jive with what I know thank you and I will be checking out more videos. I hope you’re still doing this and did well. God bless.

@@epmanualphysicaltherapyCan you please describe the symptoms of hip bursitis? Thank you.
This is a great educational video. I was speed walking six miles every other day on a country road which included up and down hills, and turns that sloped over for water run off.
I was diagnosed four months ago, prescribed two weeks of low dose steroids, no walking, and of course rest. I did better right away.
Three months after the diagnosis I was given the go ahead to stroll on a flat surface but my groin gets exhausted, weak, and achy within a minute. I lose power and get stinging afterwards so I obviously stopped.
I wasn't happy when you said how long it'll likely take to get better However, I'm' determined. I'll do everything according to your recommendations. You're cheaper than my physical therapist!
Swimming might be an alternative exercise option for you
Thank you; I'm having severe hip pain from bursitis and nothing was helping; I'll give these exercising a try.
the band i was using while using clam technique was making it worse. i dont think im at that level yet to use it. i am happy i found your channel! these exercises are very helpful!
I had a Dr tell me I had bursitis, I've had this pain in my hip for a year and half and because of that I have a herniated disc in my back also. I've been trying to heal two injuries which is stressful because I work a physical labor job and no one wants to believe I'm in a lot of pain. It's affecting every area of my life. I was doing my physical therapy exercises wrong and I did some of these exercises you recommended as I listened too you and I feel my bursitis going away almost instantly, which should help my back problems as well. Thank you so much!!!❤❤❤❤
Hey Megan, you are so welcome! Thank you for letting us know! We are glad these exercises were able to help you!
Thanks for all your help for those of us at home! I love that you are so fit, and that you show us these exercises while wearing jeans - it’s like visiting a friend and suddenly deciding to do some exercises together…to hell with the yoga pants!!💕
I have bursitis on the right side and it hurts a lot. An old knee injury has put my walk out of whack. I checked countless buristis-advice-sites and all of them show young, fit presenters who show you stretch exercises that hurt like hell and I am sure, they would not do those if they had hip bursitis. This is the only site I found that tells you: do not irritate the area even further. The slightly outward feet and walking with the glute muscles tightened helps instantly, although not that easy to do - one tends to forget but the moment one concentrates, the pain lessens immediately. So, thank you! Your exercises help and maybe it will even go away. I have had this before and it took over a year before it subsided. Never had an injection. In my country (Germany) doctors tend to be very cautious about giving cortisone injections or prescribing strong pain medication.
I do a lot of gardening and lifting can be difficult as is climbing up the stairs. It hurts a lot. Maybe a video on how to lift heavy weights and walking up the stairs with hip bursitis would be great.
How is It going now ? Thank you for sharing 🙏
It works. After 12 months of at times excruciating and debilitating pain and unable to weight bare on my right leg, or sleep at night, these butt squeezing exercises along with a good dose of magnesium each nigjt before bed and im almost ready to let go of the crutches, and walking stick.
So happy to found this video. I have mild pain in my right knee and hip.l have started this exercises. Thank you doctor.

Great video. I also used ice for 20 minted 3-4 a day and a cane which helps with pain. I did your recommended exercises and have no increase hip pain. I will compliant this week with exercise you recommended- thank you for all your help. Cheers
I'm so excited to try these exercises for my bursitis! I went to Doctor, said nothing could be done except for steroid injections, but I declined as I know that doesn't fix the problem. So I tried these exercises. The clamshell I definitely felt. The Bridge, I felt but the hamstring on right side (where bursitis in hip is located) started spasming. Standing, tightening of the glutes hurts my knee and shin and felt in lower back (same leg with problems). Not sure if I'm doing it right. I think other muscles are engaging and can't isolate just the glutes when standing.
I also have a torn labrum and sit bone tendon tear to hamstring. I can' seem to get better. Thank you for the information provided.
I’ve had hip bursitis for5 years, injection useless, no help at all. I’m going to do these exercises, Ty so much for your help.

I needed this video. I have been diagnosed with this condition, thanks.
I over did leg circles and hip openers in Pilates. After several months of doing Pilates, I noticed in early August a nagging left hip/joint pain down the front of my leg. It got so bad that a walking trip I was on I had to stop half way and sit on a bench. BTW, my legs dangled. Did t realize that was the temporary alleviation I needed. No one was able to zero in with this specific problem. I went for stretch therapy combo massage. Felt kind of better but after 2x of myofascia therapy, whoa!!! I felt way out of whack. Then went to chiro, improved but not even close. Found this sight after research. Did the buttocks and the clam shell and the hip raises the way you explained. This past Tuesday was the first day back to my old speeding bullet self. This is a daily routine. Thank you. I shared with my sister who thought she needed hip replacement.
Hey RoseAnne, we are so happy to hear that we were able to help you get back to being a speeding bullet! We love to hear that this has become a daily routine as well! These exercises can help so much with "normal" pains and even prevent surgeries down the road! Thank you for sharing your experience with us and we appreciate your support!

Just do one legged wall assisted lunges. Then work up to walking lunges. Then do open toe sumo body squats. Reps of 10 to 15 three sets
Thank you Dr. Medoff! Unfortunately, I have virtually no butt and is probably what is causing the searing pain. I am going to start doing these exercises carefully and consistently.
Thankyou sooo very much Doc these exercises will be extremely helpful! Great information and video 😊
Thank you this is great advise I 😊have been doing so many things wrong ..glad I found you 🙏🙏
Thank you! I’m going to start these today! I must exercise everyday for my fibromyalgia and it was getting very painful. This was driving me insane, ow! I hope these help me like they did everyone else here! Thank you again!🙋🏻♀️💖
I can't do the exercises that include laying down because I have spinal stenosis ....
BUT I've been doing the standing butt squeezes! I do them whenever I'm standing!!! I no longer have pain when I run my hand (with pressure) passed my hip. None! That's a first in four months. I'm eager to see if I can walk again (eventually back to speed walking).
PLEASE don't skip the exercises that are meticulously explained and shown in this video because of this comment. I'm just saying, I was almost better but went stagnant without improvement until now.
Do the exercises! Make them a part of your life. They don't take a lot of time, they're not hard to do, and they'll keep you from going through this again. 😊

Half an hour after doing this - done No pain
Hey there, we are so happy we were able to help you get pain free from this bursitis!
Wow! That worked right away! Thank you!
Hey @_gabbyt_, we are happy to help! You are so welcome!
Thank you so much Dr!!!!! I've been diagnosed with hip bursitis.
First time I get help that I understand. Except for the clam exercise - I only feel a stretch in front. But I'll just do the other two.
Let's see how I am in two weeks!! xx
Hey Beulah! We are sorry to hear that you've been dealing with hip bursitis but we are happy we've made it easy to understand what you can do to possibly help with your situation.
The clamshell exercises are harder than it looks so don't give up on them just yet, I would continue to try the modifications that Dr. David explains in the video so that you can increase your chances of feeling it in the right area. So just to reemphasize you might need to roll your torso forward a bit more and stretch the legs out in order to get the glutes engaged.
We hope this helps, hope to hear about your progress in 2 weeks! 🤩
I just found out I have this little over a year of hip replacement. What causes it after a hip replacement? I sure will try your exercises. They gave me ones to be on my floor heck I can’t even get off my floor with a bad back lol . Thank you so much 😊

@epmanualphysicaltherapy I was doing very well until last week. I have no clue why I had a flare-up.
On August 27th, I had my appointment and decided to try the injection. Sadly, so far, it's not doing anything. Yesterday I called off from work. I couldn't walk. My doctor gave me these different types of exercises, which caused more pain. For example: bending one knee towards the opposite shoulder while laying down with the other leg straight. Irritated my left outer side of the hip.
The clamshell exercise pretty much let me know that my glutes on the sides there are weak. Much needed! 🥵

Hip pain for 3 months, gone in 30 minutes after these exercises, awesome
I have Trochanteric bursitis but it doesn't hurt on the outside where you show in the video. It hurts exactly in the front of the hip, right in front, like a band near the surface right in front, extending a little down the front of the quad. The outside feels fine.
Thank you sir. I am 61 yrs old. I will give these a try.

Thank you so very much for the hip exercises. I’ve had this problem since covid years after I retired thinking it’s too much sitting or too much activity on my right hip that’s Wer it hurts. It has relieved the pain and I’m walking better.

Start with one or two exercises, beginning with the smallest range of motion and the lowest intensity. As you feel stronger, you can gradually increase both the range of motion and intensity. It’s best to do these exercises every day throughout the day. Aim to tire out the muscle without losing form or control. Consistency is key. Always avoid working through pain; soreness and mild discomfort are normal, but pain is not.
We hope you found this information helpful to you. We'd love to hear how you are doing as you progress.🙌 Please take care!
I can do the butt exercises,back lift I can do, but I can’t do the clam because I’ve only had a replacement three weeks ago. Thanks for the advice. Mr first hip replacement six months ago is my left hip,it’s the one I have bursitis in. My latest hip replacement was only three weeks ago, it is better than my first one.
