What Causes Extreme Pain In The Lower Back On The Right Side?

My lower right back and/or high right hip area is extremely painful and debilitating. It s been off and on for years now and none of my doctors can determine what it is. I wonder if it s the gluteus medius or a nerve. An MRI shows nothing significant in my lower back except the beginning of a bulging disk that my doctor said should not be causing that much pain. Pain meds don t help that specific area. I m not able to stand up sometimes due to the pain in that area.

HI
Well come to HCM
Your query is appreciated, the chances if fibromyalgia could be the likely condition if it is nothing detected in testing and in my opinion it can be given try with Tab Duloxetine once in day, you can even try some physiotherapy, and most important is try to come out of the stress hope this information helps.
