Sciatica: Although, there are tons of different reasons for your presentation, sciatica is one of those that seem to be more commonly seen in every day practice. Kidney stones, albeit, less likely given your presentation, is another possibility not to be missed.

See a specialist: There are many causes of low back pain. Most of these causes are related to the muscles, joints, ligaments, and bones in the back. Other causes could stem from problems with kidney, bladder, or reproductive organs. There are many "tests" available but if your pain persists then a further work up is required. Ask to see a spine specialist.

May be unrelated: Lower back pain frequently radiates to hip
but you talk about clicking sound of the hip which is due to tendon, or effusion around the hip
get it checked you need exam, imaging.

Exercise including: Core conditioning program with gentle strecthing, cadio routines & exercises emphasizing core strengthening in additon to keeping a lean body mass & avoiding fatigue. Habits such as smoking have significant negative impact on the spine. Also avoid prolonged sitting & long drives as well as long periods of standing-take breaks if needed.

A 70-year-old female asked:
Can i occasionally take an extra melodicam 7.5 for bad hip / lower back pain when i can't get to doctor?

? meloxicam: There are two dosing strengths 7.5mg / 15mg
you are not to exceed 15mg per day.
So if you are taking 7.5mg a day normally - then another 7.5mg taken about 12 hrs later is okay.
If you are on 15mg per day then you should not take another tab.

Pain and hip pain: The back pain can be caused by muscle strain, spinal stenosis, ruptured disc, nerve impingement ...
The hip pain can be caused by arthritis, ligament injury, tendon tears, muscle strain ...
The treatment depends on the cause of the pain. I recommend you seeking help from a health care provider. You might benefit from a comprehensive evaluation.
