Question : Hi, I have pain in my hip consistently for about a month. It radiates to my lower back and thigh. I have a intermitent pains in my stomach that come and go and are not severe. I also have pain on my pelvic area. All pain is on the right side.
Brief Answer:
Can be arthritis or spondylosis.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
The pain in hip, lower back and thigh may be related to each other. This can be related to arthritic changes in the hip joint or due to spondylitic changes in lower spine. MRI scan is needed for proper diagnosis.
You can start with mild pain killers in combination with oral muscle relaxants and oral calcium supplements. Doing a hot compress and application of local analgesic gel will also help.
I hope this answers your query. In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out. Wishing you good health.

Would this cause the pain around my waist on right side and in pelvic area of right side?
