Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns

If I were your treating Doctor for this case , I would come up with two possibilities, these include:
Upper back pain musculoskeletal spasm in the upper back and this could be relieved by skeletal muscle relaxant.

Lower back pain with radicular pain in both hips and numbness with walking is mostly nerve root compression due to back problem as lumbar disc prolapse mostly.SO you should do MRI lumbosacral spine to asses the cause well.

I find this answer helpful
