"i am a young (22 year-old) female who has bursitis in my right hip. i&#039;m anteriorally rotated, and have a gluteal strain, so it doesn&#039;t help my hip.  physical therapy has significantly helped, but my hip pops every step i take, and often pops out of place. again despite the physical therapy, the pain sometimes becomes unbearable. i have tried about 4 different drugs before lortab. lortab is the only medicine that eases the severe pain (when i&#039;m between 8 and 10 on the pain scale). it is not to take for every day, but it is amazing.  for me, the downside, which i have heard from many people, is that it can leave you feeling anxious, and i generally can&#039;t sleep if i take lortab.  i think the benefits far outweigh the negative."
