Let us help you: This could be constipation or muscle pain or both. 1. Take 4 tablets of dulcolax at night ( all 4 tabs as one dose ). Next morning, you will have good bm. This might help the pain. Repeat 4 tablets in 10 days. 2. Take naprosyn (naproxen) 500 mg one tab. Twice a day for 2 weeks. If still no relief, see your doctor for evaluation.

This could be one of: Several possibilities including a hip joint issue like a labral tear or about the hip such as a bursitis or pyriformis tendinitis. It could be a sacroiliac joint problem or even a lower back problem such as an l5-s1 facet joint condition. Intrapelvic conditions could also be an issue like an ovarian cyst. As it has persisted it is worth seeing your doctor concerning your symptoms.

Get it evaluated: It sounds more like back pain than hip pain. The pain on the side is referred from the back or a trochanteric bursitis. See an orthopedist.
