What Causes Right-sided Pain On The Hips Despite Taking Cortisone Shot?
I have had pain to my Rt hip for 3 weeks. Went Monday and got a cortisone shot. Felt better as far as the stabbing and sharp pains with constant ache. Worse when I lay down. Can t sleep on Rt side. now occasional stabbing pain but now I have a painful lump in my Rt inguinal area. all area painful to touch. No fever or redness. ROM now stiff
First of all, it's sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, you need to evaluate X-ray of the hip joint to rule out any infection in the acetabulum of hip joint however the possibility of psoas abscess should also be ruled out.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
