Brief Answer:
I need further details

Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I have read your query in detail. I understand your concern.

The pain at that particular location can occur due to any of the following:
1. Traumatic Injury over there
2. Pott's spine.

I would like to know following details:
1. Have you got pain on movement or during rest?
2. Have you got any fever?
3. Any weakness felt in legs?
4. Have you got any reports? Attach them

I am just worried for Pott's spine (TB of spine) since you had TB of Brain / Meningitis.

This is my best opinion for you based on available details. If you have any further query please ask me and revert with the answers of the questions preferably in point wise manner.
Stay Healthy.
