Suggest Treatment For Hip Pain

I am having severe pain in my hip. It started 3 days ago all of a sudden. It gets worse as the day goes on and when I stand up. Some movement causes a sharp pain so bad I scream out! At times I have to use furniture as a crutch. What is it and why did it come on so suddenly?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Most probably it is due to spine related problem or sciatica. As a first line management drugs like gabapentin can be taken. If symptoms persist better to consult a neurologist and get evaluated. An MRI scan can be taken for further assessment.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
