A member asked:
Good day, each time i take prednisone, i develop pain in my hips, groin and lower back area. is this normal? should i continue the prescription?

Depends: on the diagnosis and indication, however your prescriber needs to know this information, you may need a dexa scan (bone densitometry), as you may have developed osteopenia or osteoporosis, or may be just a coincidence, wish you well
