Q: i have a pain in my right lower side just above my hip, what could cause this?

: The hip joint is near the groin area. Pain above the hip could be muscular, or lower abdominal discomfort. Back pain can also refer to that area. It depends on the specific location of the discomfort, and the associated symptoms. An evaluation would be beneficial to localize the pain source.
