Does Epidural During C Section Cause Pain In Hip?

Hi, I am having a lower right back pain near my hip. 21 yrs ago I got an epidural when I delivered my daughter, I had a C- section. Now I am having pain where I had the shot. I was told that I may have Arthritis there. I just recently got a muscle relaxer shot but it didn t help much. I may need a cortisone shot which helped my left hip fine. what do you suggest.

Hello.. warm regards to you and welcome to HCM.I understand your concern. Acc to me u may have disc problem. Please don't take any medicine without consulting doctor. You should consult either good Orthopaedic doctor or Good Neurosurgeon. Probably U need MRI scan of that region.
