I am 71 and beginning to have some pain in my hips. I exercise three hours a week and walk 1/2 mile each day. Is it better to push through the pain or better to lay off for a day?
Consistent bone pain could indicate some underlying minor stress fracture or some bursitis. I would advise that you see your family doctor before pursuing rigorous exercise to rule out these conditions. Please continue regular physical activity.
