Experiencing Pain With Legs,hips & Back Causing Difficulty To Stand After Child Birth

Hi, Since having my son 15 months ago I have had non stop trouble with my legs, hips and back. Most days I can hardly walk the pain is so bad. My doctor has done blood tests to check for arthritis and inflammatory diseases. My hips feel bruised, stiff and it hurts to walk. Some days they are also very swollen. When I stand up and when I walk I get burning sensation down the front of my thighs and my back constantly aches as well as my whole pelvis. Some days I can compare it to my labour pain which was all in my hips and back. I did have an epidural. I just need some answers because I can t keep living with this pain. Especially with a very active toddler. Any ideas? Thanks

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and let me tell you that after the birth this is very common complain and this comes around soon, if you still have this then get done the hemoglobin test, and drink more water be on very light aerobic exercise if possible for the pain you can try Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg, take care and have a nice day.
