Suggest Remedy For Pain In Lower Back And Hip

I have been having lower back pain and hip pain on my left side. Pain worse in morning but eases up later on in day. Have been taking anti-inflammatory supplements, stretching exercises and using hot and cold packs. Have a little pain in stomach area. I am not fatigued, haven t lost appetite and have regular bm s. Had a chiropractor adjustment today, but nothing has changed. Hope you can give me some suggestions of what I should do next. This lower back pain started Thanksgiving morning, went to my doctor and he diagnosed it as a spastic lower back muscle, but this has been going on too long.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,
Thankyou for your question.
Brief..answer...you may need physiotherapy.
Detailed answer...As there can be many causes of lower backache, but from your history it seems that you may be either suffering from urine infection or slip disc problem or Shiatica.
My opinion would be get urine test done first and for slip disc lumbar spine or Shiatica, you may need MRI spine to be done and discuss further with neurosurgeon, also physiotherapy for few weeks can make you relieve from the pain.
