Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
.
Yes, you are right , the concern of cancer of the colon has to be investigated immediately by having colonoscopy after a good preparation and also to have the CT scan of the abdomen and hip joints to whether the to problems are related or not.
It is possible that the cause of the pain in the right side of the abdomen be due to colitis or co.
Pain in the left hip looks to be a different problem as it is there for 2 months. A good physical examination by an Orthopedic Surgeon and a CT or MRI can help to get a proper diagnosis.
During such a problem it is always better to have an early diagnosis.
