Back and Hip Pain...05/11/2009 |
For the past 8 months I have been getting pain in my hips sometimes its the right side more other times it is the left. The pain is a numb, but painful constant dull pain that wakes me up in the night and makes it more painful to move. Sometimes this pain extends down the back of my leg other times it doesn`t and recently I`ve just started getting a VERY sharp pain in my lower back on the sides of my spine. I`ve had an x-ray and an MRI and they are both showing up nothing. I am desparate to figure this out to stop the pain, please help.... thanks.
