Hello,
Welcome at HCM.

I have read your question.

It looks from your details that most probably you are having compression of your nerve in your back as well as a hip pathology.At present you should consult to your doctor & should get investigation like Hb,TDLC,ESR,CRP,THYROID FUNCTION TEST,etc.You should also have MRI of your back.

Hope this all will help you.

With best wishes.

Hello,

There seem to be involvement of the nerve roots in the spinal column.
Radiculopathy is present.(Radiating pain).
You need to rule out Sciatica.
