Does Pulmonary Hypertension Cause Pain Between The Ribs And Hip?
ITS KIND OF COMPLICATED. JUST GOT DIAGNOSED WITH PULMONARY HYPERTENSION THIS PAST THURSDAY. SO I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING A LOT SINCE I VE NEVER HEARD OF IT. AND I KNOW THERE ARE MORE THINGS I PROBABLY WILL HAVE DONE TO GET A MORE ACCURATE DIAGNOSIS. BUT FOR TONIGHT I WAS SEARCHING TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY TYPE OF KIDNEY DISEASES THAT CONTRIBUTE TO PH. A FEW MONTHS BACK I KEPT HAVING A PAIN IN MY RIGHT SIDE BETWEEN RIBS AND HIP. IT LASTED A FEW MONTHS AND MYSTERIOUSLY WENT AWAY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN ITS BACK. I WAS JUST WONDERING (GRASPING REALLY) IF IT COULD POSSIBLY BE CONNECTED TO THIS PULMONARY HYPERTENSION.

need not do any research in this case pumunary arteries are involved. it supply blood to right side of heart. it is not curable. the blood you get is purified with oxygen. narrowing of pulmonary arterioles are the cause.
