A member asked:

My hips hurt while sleeping hard to lie onton them my back?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

LBP: Low back pain - this is pretty much a fact of life - most people will get it at some point. I would do some gentle stretching and see a chiropractor for treatment. If that doesn't help then you should see your family doctor for further evaluation.
