Brief Answer:
may be sacroiliitis, requires further evaluation.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and here is my advice.

As per your history, it may be due to sacroiliitis i.e inflammation of sacro-iliac joints.

For further assessment, I would suggest you consult with the spine surgeon for a detailed clinical examination. S/he may procure an MRI and nerve conduction studies as per evaluation. Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.

Meanwhile, continue pain medications and heating pads. You can apply diclofenac gel locally. You may require muscle relaxant Chlorzoxazone, physical therapy, local steroid injections SOS after consultation.

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