A member asked:
Ive had 2 random stabbing left hip pains. one woke me up. like lightning bolts. does that sound like a strain or nerve issue? no pain when moving. the strikes have just come out of nowhere and brief. arthritis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Arthritis means inflammation of a joint. Arthritis pains are usually not brief nor sporadic. Strain refers to overuse of a tendon of a muscle; this is possible. If there has been 2 episodes so far, difficult to determine if this is nerve pain.
