What Causes Severe Pain In Right Side Of Back And Hip Caused After Injury?

i have severe lower back pain on my right side & hip & right leg. I have had this for several years, however it has worsened after a bicycle accident. I had a fractured humerous. The emergency room nor the doctor have asked for any other x-rays. I had an mri w/results that they saw spasms but nothing that required surgery. in the meantime the pain is unbearable & I am unable to lay on my back and I am unable to sleep. The pain in my elbow and shoulders has gotten better. (accident was almost 2 years ago) but my back & hip & leg have worsened. I am unable to lift my right leg when getting in and out of the passenger side of a care. I have to physically lift it myself. I suffer sharp excruciating pains in my hip when sitting. It feels like a huge rubber band has slipped out of place. The pain travels down my right hip, leg, burning, & all the way to my calf. muscle. Sometimes there is numbness & I have been suffering migraines. I also have an area upper thoracic & to the left that causes me excruciating pain as well since the accident & I am unable to lay on my back for this reason as well. Lately I have had a few lightheaded woozy spells. The pain in my lower right side is the most extreme. I am taking 10mg hydrocodone/325 mg acetamenaphin 4xper day & tramadol/acetamenophin 4xper day as well without relief!!!

Hello,

Possibility of spine related conditions like prolapsed disc or minor fracture must be ruled out.

Consult an orthopedic and get evaluated. An MRI spine is required for further assessment.

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

Take care
