Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In The Hip

I am having major pain in my right hip area to my belly button but only on the right side. this happened a couple of months ago and i went to the emergency room and they did some testing and kept me over night with just a treatment of antibiotics and a follow up with my doctor.. and all of a sudden it has come back and its alot worse than it was last time.

Hi,

The fact that the pain had relieved after antibiotic treatment suggests it to be an infective arthritis hip joint. Still confirmation of the guess would be after blood work (TLC, DLC, ESR/test for a rheumatic factor. X-ray or MRI of joint) & Other needful investigations followed by a suitable treatment by a rheumatologist. Rest along with the treatment would help relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
