You are welcome.

Also you may have some tendonitis there. The hip is pretty complex with lots of ligaments holding it together.

Some antibiotics called fluoroquinolones (Cipro and Levaquin, Avelox) can cause tendon injuries or ruptures even long after use.
Up to a year! People get bronchitis etc, take Cipro or Levaquin and rupture Achilles tendons doing nothing extreme months later. Any tendon can rupture with these drugs!

If you had MP, you would have pain even after stopping the running. MP does NOT stop hurting when activity level changes.
There are studies with Lidoderm and pain relief in the knee. Those studies found results comparable to Celebrex RX NSAID.
So the Lidoderm may work for you. I am not sure it can penetrate to the deep bursae in the hip though.

If you have any problems with the Lidoderms, you can PM me anytime, as well.
