Suggest Remedy For Pain In Hip Joints, Tight Calves And Numbness In Leg
I have been having pain in my hip joints and in the muscles around my hip joints for a year plus. Lately the back of my calves have been really tight and I feel numbness going down the leg. My tendons around my pelvis are extremely tight and every morning I wake up with back pain.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The pain in the back, hips and calves may be due to conditions of the joints and/or muscles.
In some cases, problems with the back (eg arthritis) which may then affect the nerves involved in sensation of the legs, can cause pain in the hips and back.
You may need imaging of the back and hips to look for any changes.
The use of pain medication and physiotherapy exercises may help.
I hope this helps
