Specializes in General Practice

Musculoskeletal: 20's male with acute unilateral hip pain upon awakening and not associated with trauma likely has sciatica from sacroiliac joint subluxation or pyriformis syndrome, or else has greater trochanteric bursitis. A doctor should be consulted, and sooner than later if any redness or fever or signs of infection.
