Hi i've had pain in my right side leg and now i can't even sleep on that side. i've been taking painkillers and anti-inflammatories just to get a good night's sleep. should i go for x-rays?

Pain: Unless possible fracture/trauma or significant known bone issues an X-ray will provide limited information. Best will be to start with an exam with your GP and let him or her decide if an imaging study would be needed based on detailed history and findings on exam.
