Posted on Thu, 29 Oct 2020
Question: Hi,
I am 37 years old and i am getting hip/ribs paing while i sleep in the night.
It goes off when i stretch legs above hip and when i wake up. But it comes back when i sleep that too mostly on right side. And never hurts in the day time and feel a little when i stretch or do little warmup. Also i feel a little pain when i press ribs.
Also i sleep on my right 75 percent in the night. And when i hit on my kidney area i dont feel any pain.

Thee years back i got some pain on my ower back and ribs ad then i got usg scan and all tests done. everythignwas normal and ortho suggested me to putt off weight and do some workouts. I am over weight and i do the sitting in a fiber chair around 10 hrs a day with a very little exercise weekly.
So i would like to know it could be becz of kidney problem or liver problem? i am afraid to go for usg scan due to corona. what should i do. Please help.

Brief Answer:
Can be due to low levels of vitamin D3.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.

The pain in the hips and ribs that you are having is less likely to be due to any liver or kidney problem. This can happen due to low levels of vitamin D3 and calcium. Decreased exercise by the body and ill maintaining of the tone of muscles and being overweight also does not help.

It is best to get your serum Vitamin D3 levels tested and start with proper supplements in case the levels are low.

Wishing you good health.

Brief Answer:
Can be due to a muscle sprain.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
The muscle pain that you are feeling can be related to a muscle sprain also. This can happen due to decreased fluid intake and electrolyte disturbance. Inadequate stretching and lack of proper tone can also cause such a pain. You can get a few blood tests done and start with a proper exercise regimen to strengthen your back muscles.
Hope this answer is helpful.
Regards.
