Suggest Treatment For Pelvic Pain While Sitting And Laying Down

I have pelvic pain always when sitting and laying down. I had a pelvic break that did not fuse together 3 years ago. I have to take pain medicine to be able to rest at night. I have osteoporosis and osteoarthritis also. I also have rheumatoid arthritis, but my doctor says that does not cause my pain. I am 72 year old and work full time teaching. I also have pain from arthritis in back, arms, hands, feet, left leg. The break was pubic rami in 2 places. Any suggestions to relieve some of the pain. I have also lost 25 pounds in the last 3 years since my fall and pelvic break. I am now going to have a ct scan with prep. I did physical therapy after fall and was in hospital 3 days and rehab center 3 weeks. I used a walker for 5 months afterwards. I have not used a walker since then. Appreciate any suggestions.

I think your problem is more relevant to the osteoporosis than the fracture site itself..it is painful hip but if all physiotherapy done is not effective for pain then focus on calcium intake ..
keep doing physiotherapy and try hydrotherapy and warm baths exercises..
at home you can sit in your tub in warm water it is good for the rheumatoid,arthritis and circulation..
