    Pain like that should be reported to the oncologist if it lasts for more than a couple weeks. Hoping it improves.

    thanks KBeee, I mentioned to my mom oncologist. Her oncologist didn’t take serious. Since, my mom had recently PET scan and it’s came clear. Also, my mom has arthritis.

    I don’t blame my mom oncologist. My mom do lot of exerciseMostly, her pain stop when she stop exercise.

    It could be bursitis from irritation/exercise.

    I had hip pain and my onco wasn't freaked out. Mine lasted 4 -5 weeks and disappeared when I went easier on the exercise.

    If she had a clear PET scan, bursitis or arthritis could be possibilities. Perhaps her primary care physician could recommend some physical therapy.
