Complain that her hips click and that it hurts?

She was born with a dislocated hip but we double -Nappied her and at 8 weeks old it hd resolved.
She is very athletic but recently she has been complaining.Any ideas?
Btw she has other Health Issues as well andI really hate pestering the doctors as she hates going to the doctor IYSWIM.

Thanks in advance

Take her to a doctor. My daughter was born with a host of problems, a dislocated hip being one of them. She was in a brace until she was almost 3 months old. The doc told me that if her hip starts to bug her, or make clicking noises to take her in asap so she could see a specialist. Best caes scenario: the hip is fine and it's going to click and hurt a little sometimes with no harm. Worst case: something is physically wrong with the hip socket or the top of the femur. Worst case can require anything from minor to major surgery. Good luck
