What Could It Be If Having Severe Pain In Hip Radiating To Back Accompanied By Chills And Constipation?

I have digestive issues often. The most common problem I suffer from is severe pain that sits at my left hip and wraps around my back. When this is happening, it also creates a discomfort that presents as UTI, but I have been told that it is a result of the bowel being swollen and pushing on the bladder. Occasionally, this pain will move across the hip and down into the lower left quandrent of my belly. These attacks are accompanied by severe chills and always constipation. After taking antibiotics, the problem slowly diminishes and goes away. Once it was diagnosed as diverticulitis, but more often, there is no real answer? Any ideas?

Hi there.

Your symptoms correlate to either a PELVIC INFLAMMATORY DISEASE or INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE.
The pain in hip snd back could mostly be referred pain from the inflammatory site.

Kindly get an ultrasound of the abdomen done and consult a Gastrophysician..

For pain relief I would suggest either Tramodol or Tapentodol because they have minimum side effects on the digestive system.

I hope my advice has helped
Good luck.
