Suggest Remedy For Left Sided Pain In Hips, Groin And Thighs

Hello, the last few days I have been experiencing sharp pain in left buttock, numbing/sharp pain in left groin and left thigh. I had a lipasarcoma removed ten years ago and was thinking the nerves were just playing up again. This feels different. I have just had a contraceptive implant in my arm as well. Not sure if that is causing any problems. Any help appreciated as I cannot even touch my buttock and hurts to put pants on and the pain woke me early this morning. I have just discovered a lump or swelling around the kidney area. Not huge, but to touch you can feel the difference

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Most of the time, pain in your hip and groin is caused by a problem with the hip bones or other structures in or around the hip joint.
Muscle strain is another common cause.
I suggest to do an xray of the hip to help through the diagnosis.
Meanwhile,I suggest using painkillers such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain.
Gentle stretching exercises may also help.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
