Question 1

i'm having hip pain on my left side and buttock, it hurts when i move my leg. it started last week a day after i went shopping and now it started a day after shopping again. is it caused by the way i walk or that i normally don't walk that much?

Accepted Answer

Limb length,rotation: This is possibly due to a limb length difference or a rotated pelvis or hip. When walking or standing this puts a strain on the butt muscles or hip abductors. Can develop or discover this at your age is not uncommon. Someone trained in biomechanics , physical therapist, podiatrist   Muscle strengthening is a benefit but not necessarily resolve the problem.

Question 2

started pt for lateral hip pain. now pain is bad in buttock at lower edge of hip bone. some pain on front edge of hip bone also. why does butt hurt?

Accepted Answer

Varies: Physical therapy is a well accepted treatment for various conditions causing hip and buttock pain; but sometimes therapy can unintentionally make the symptoms worse.  Two most common causes are a lumbar radiculopathy (irritation of nerve in the back) and a tendinitis/bursitis on the out side of the hip (ITB syndrome).  Don’t hesitate to return to your doctor to discuss other treatment options

Question 3

i had sex last nite, was on top. left hip hurts so bad especially putting weight on it, bending, walking, flexing muscle near it. what did i do?

Accepted Answer

Hip or back strain: It is very possible that you may have strained dome muscle in your hip  or may have activated some old bursitis in your hip . OR you may have pulled your back out and what you are feeling is referred pain  from your back into your hip . Try rest , some Anti inflammatory medications  or use some pain pads such as Salonpas  OTC if it continues more than a week , seek medical attention .

Question 4

am i pregnant, or do i have an ovarian cyst? me and my boyfriend had sex the 4th. at least a day or two after, severe pain in my abdominal area, and tender boobs. the pain shoots through my thighs, and lower back. sometimes my hip hurts too. i  have to pe

Accepted Answer

A : A variety of things could be going on. Yes an ovarian cyst is possible. A urinary tract infection (uti), std's, vaginal infections etc. Are all possible. Pregnancy should be ruled out with a pregnancy test and all the other issues can be investigated by your doctor with simple testing in the office. If your doctor believes you have an ovarian cyst, a special type of ultrasound will be ordered to visualize your ovaries.
Best of luck.

Question 5

my low back kinda hurt and inside left buttock area doesn't feel alright. i move my left buttock here and there so much.i can't relax. it's so bothersome. my penis also doesn't erect property. my pelvis area doesn't feel free. i have this for 2 year?

Accepted Answer

: Sounds like you need to be seen in person for a full history &amp; physical to get to the bottom of this.

Question 6

my lower back right of the spine into the buttocks/ hip hurts. i can't bend forward at all.  i have a hard time lifting things. what can i do to heal?

Accepted Answer

Stay active!: The best thing for back pain is to remain active and do not stay in bed too long!  if any bowel or bladder symptoms, seek help immediately.  Physical therapy helps many with back pain!

Question 7

the back of my hip hurts on the side as well into my s.i., down my buttocks into my inner leg and down to my knee it hurts to turn and lay on hip/back?

Accepted Answer

PROBABLE SCIATICA: Your symptoms are probably due to a 'compressed' lumbar nerve in your back (likely l3-4). A lumbar MRI scan may confirm the diagnosis.  You should get seen for proper treatment which may include an initial short course of oral steroids (e.g. Medrol (methylprednisolone) pack). Warning signs for a serious condition, spinal stenosis (pinched spinal cord), are : leg weakness and/or bladder/bowel changes.  Hope ur better!

Question 8

throbbing bilateral hip pain. outer hips, goes down outer side thighs and wraps around into buttocks. lying supine hurts hips. sitting hurts, too. why?

Accepted Answer

Lower back: Pain is that distribution suggest a lumbar spine rather than a hip issue. Doc may suggest to you that it is a trochanteric bursitis but more like it is referred pain from the back.

Question 9

4mm kidney stone xray showed it at l4. i've had a lot more pain & haematuria & now buttock/hip pain. does that indicate the stone has moved to bladder?

Accepted Answer

Moved somewhat: It is known that these stones will hurt when they move. Bleeding will also occur. Can't always tell where it is by the pain. The closer to the bladder, the more likely you will feel it in the groin area or back. The best way to know where it is, is with an X-ray . Hope it passes quickly

Question 10

back& hip pain for weeks, pain mostly on left side even in buttocks and thigh.swelling on side and in leg, now have sore knots near hip, thigh, back?

Accepted Answer

What did you do?: Did you injure the back. Sounds very musculoskeletal. Try heat with passive back stretches and ibuprofen to bring down the swelling.
