Hello,
Thanks for your query.
According to the history provided the back pain and hip pain could be part of a mechanical back pain complex of symptoms. This mechanical back pain is caused due to tight tendons, bad posture at work, long work-hours in particular position, lack of proper sleep or healthy diet as well.
First you need to assess the severity of the situation. Get an MRI done if not done already. That will give us a fair idea of the cause and will help in ruling out any local injuries or disc related problems. Then accordingly a treatment plan can be formulated.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
