Brief Answer:
Blood cloth unlikely, more likely joint or back problem
Detailed Answer:
Dear Patient,
your symptoms are less likely typical for blood cloth. More likely seems a hip joint or lower back problem. Your doctor can find out what is more likely through examination. Further diagnostic options like x rays will be decided depending on the findings in the examinations,
