Get a second opinion.

Inquire about PT and exercises/stretches that you can do at home.

Epsom salts relax the muscles and helps relieve pain.

I once had a twisted pelvis and walking in itself was painful. It was months before anyone instructed me what type of exercises to do at home to relieve the pain. Once I started the stretching exercises, I was then able to walk normally and I kept walking on a regular basis. When I don't stretch or walk, things start getting painful and jacked up.

Sending healing vibes!
