Pain In Right Hip Worsened With Sitting Or Lying Down. Have Osteoarthritis In Knees, Hands, L4 Degeneration. History Of Having Dexascan. Ideas?
For the last 5-6 weeks I have pain in my right hip upon standing and it is worse the longer I have been sitting or laying down. I have osteoarthritis in my knees and hands. Some L4 degeneration. I had a dexascan a few years ago and off the top of my head 2.3 rings a bell? My right knee is worse than the left. The right hip pain feels like a bad bruise. Any ideas or suggestions.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain in the hip that you are having could be due to the osteoarthritis that you are having. You need calcium supplements and bisphosphonates therapy for relief.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
