Hot bath? Deep massage?

A herd of small goats running one you?

Any or all of those might help.

Minimizing steps (only 10,171) and a good nights sleep have rejuvenated me.

I use Voltarin gel on my shoulder. Says it won't work on hips but, clears throat, it does. Hip pain is as bad as shoulder pain, IMHO. You can't get comfortable no matter how you lie in bed.

Shoulder pain I have been able to deal with so far, but the hip pain refuses to be ignored. All is pretty good now.

@sourland what bothers my hips is walking on concrete flooring. And of course every store floor you walk on is concrete so I can count on having sore hips the next day.

Glad to hear that yours are feeling better.

I've been doing a lot of activities that require kneeling down and getting up - activities that once were routine/easy. All is good I'm just 'not 25' anymore - a fact that my doctor reminds me of.
