There are more people in the United States that suffer from lower back and hip pain than you probably realize; certainly more of them than there are of all other types of back pain that exist.
Being one of the chief complaints that people have when they walk into a medical clinic these days, lower back dorsalgia has caused a lot of physicians and medical healthcare specialists to step up their studies and research on the syndrome while also improving on their diagnostic processes to increase the chances that they can not only catch the condition, but also so that they will be able to appropriately identify its causes, and then apply the best treatment for the condition.
When a patient has lower back and hip pain, chances are that they have some form of arthritis, which could be rheumatoid or osteoarthritis. Or it could be ankylosing spondylitis, a syndrome due to due to chronic inflammation of the spine, starting with pain and stiffness in the sacroiliac joint and often progressing up the spine to the ribs and neck under normal circumstances.
However the disease often progresses to the whole of your spinal column, causing the bones to fuse, and may affect your hip, knee, and shoulder joints. With as many as a million Americans suffering from the condition in the United State today, you cannot rule out AS before you at least tested for it.
People who have hip and lower back pain usually have to be tested for fibromyalgia, especially when the pain is chronic but without inflammation or swelling. The physician will have to ascertain that you have soreness in as many as 11 tender joints as well as widespread body pain.
Sure they have to answer to the chances that you may have other disorders like arthritis, lupus, thyroid disorders, through series of blood tests, and that may take some time in the working. Once you are diagnosed with fibromyalgia, you may then proceed to undergo the treatment procedures for the disorder.
