DEAR SIR/MADAM
IT IS NOT DUE TO ARTHRITIS, IT MIGHT BE DUE TO SITTING ON THE ORIGIN OF THE NERVE ROOT ON THE BONE. IT IS COMMONLY CAUSED DUE TO DECREASED FAT BENEATH THE BONE.
SOME TIMES IT CAN BE TREATED BY MUSCLE RELAXANTS AND ANALGESICS.
IF IT IS NOT RELIEVED BY TAKING MEDICATIONS THEN NEUROSURGEON CONSULTATION IS NEEDED.
THANK YOU
