4Pain When Lying
Another possible sign of hip bursitis is pain when lying on the bed at night. In fact, many people first notice the presence of this condition when they are sleeping because its symptoms tend to become worse during this time. After an extended period of inactivity, the pain and discomfort would become more intense. Inform your doctor if you notice radiating pain when getting out of bed in the morning, turning over to one side of the body, or standing up after a long period of sitting in a vehicle or chair. [5]
Pain with Extreme Range of Motion
Many people with hip bursitis may have pain when they perform extreme hip abduction or rotation. These activities, especially common in some sports and physical tasks, involving the use of the hip to move the leg in specific directions. Due to inflammation and swelling, the IT band around the hip may become tight. As a result, any extreme range of motion would cause pain. [6]
