Is The Broad Ligament Damage Causing The Pain In Hip?
Hello. After a slip and fall accident landing hard on left buttock near hip I have been suffering unbearable amount of pain. Looked at only for skelatal problems and none were found through CT and X rays. No Mri or ultra sound was provided. I have been in more and more pain for 6 months. Morphine has been given for the pain still, I have no answers. Pain radiates across low back and through to front low pelvic region. I had a radical hysterectomy about a year before this slip and fall could it be broad ligament damage?

Hi,
Most of the ligament injuries to the hip occurs in case of dislocations. Probability of ligament damage with a simple fall is quiet unlikely, moreover, location of the pain and its radiation points towards a more ominous cause. I advise for an ultrasound of the whole abdomen with musculoskeletal screening.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
