Question: Should I go to the doctors for this pain!?
I am a runner and for the past two years I have had pain in my gluteul muscles, I believe it is my gluteus medius but I am not positive!. It can get pretty bad at times!. Recently my hip area started hurting but its and off and on pain and I dont know if it is connected to my gluteul pain!. Any idea what could be causing this!? Should I go to the doctors!?

Sounds more like a slightly pinched sciatic nerve than anything else!.
I would suggest that you see a doctor!. You may get a referral to an ortho surgeon if the pain gets really bad and starts traveling down your leg!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes you should since you cannot treat without a diagnosis!. I often see people advising others to go to a physiotherapist or physical therapist but in this state a doctor's prescription is required by anyone that treats a condition!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
Its probably hip bursitis which means the cushion that protects your hip has been aggrevated with the running!. See a physiotherapist!. They will do a ultrasound treatment to help decrese the swelling within the hip joint!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
