A member asked:
Sometimes at night i have pain in lower back/hips, in any position - can be so intense breathing is difficult. lasts bout 10 min. what could cause it
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain is causing it: You'll need to have your low hip/back pain evaluated by your doctor, since all positions do not relieve the pain at night. The pain alone is enough to cause you to have difficulty breathing, as your repositiioning affects your intrathoracic pressure from the diaphragm, especially if you're holding your breath, when trying to move to a more comfortable position. Get pain relief soon.
