Suggest Remedies For Severe Pain In Left Hip Joint
Question: It's been quite some days now I have been undergoing severe pain in my left hip joint. Nearly a year back I started playing Badminton which (I suppose) triggered this problem. Since then, whenever I do any physical exercise or play any outdoor game the pain starts coming back.
In normal day-to-day activity also, while bending I feel a pinch/strain in my heel. Now the pain is spreading towards my chest and I am unable to sleep at night due to breathing difficulties.
I have consulted many ortho & physio specialists but with no XXXXXXX !
All of them prescribe me to take some muscle relaxer(pain killer) and do some physiotherapy as there is no abnormality found in X-ray reports.
Now I doubt this is because of any vein compression. My question is what should I do now ? Do I need to consult any Neuro or Spine specialist? or should I go for MRI scan ?

Brief Answer:
Visit and get a consultation from a rheumatologist
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
I have gone through all your reports and xray.
HLA B27 positivity and sacroiliatis is suggestive of ankylosing spondylosis.
You need to visit and consult a rheumatologist rather than orthopedic surgeon.
Better management will be done under a rheumatologist.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
