Living with Hip Osteoperosis

Hello

I have knee osteoarthritis which I have been treating with " FLEXISEQ"  a gel used around the knee twice a say. This had totally changed my life and although quite expensive to buy - was worth every penny !

Sadly I now have hip osteoarthritis, and unfortunately the above gel is not helping as much as the knee.  I have however been on holiday with a private pool and having devised my own swimming "regime" was amazed after 2 weeks to find that the pain in my hip was almost gone.  I hate taking tablets and have to say took absolutely none during this swimming exercise, it was unbelievable.  No stiffness at all after sitting or getting out of car etc, I could not believe it. The pain I have to say has returned somewhat as I cannot get to a swimming pool that easily to continue. Can anybody suggest similar exercises to achieve what I managed to achieve in the swimming pool.

I look forward to any comments from fellow sufferers.

Thank you :)
