More Answers to "why would my lower right side next to my hip bone hurt?"
If you are speaking of the belly part of the lower right side it could be appendicitis. But then also a blockage in your intestine or many other things polyps, both cancerous or non. So I would see a Doctor.If it's toward the front or side of your lower abdomen, it could be an ovarian cyst. There are many types of ovarian cysts and they can sometimes be painful. Ovarian cysts are quite common. Your gynecologist can diagnose them by pelvic exam and/or ultrasound. Depending on the type of cyst, it may require no treatment, surgery, or perhaps birth control pills to prevent new cysts from forming (assuming you aren't trying to get pregnant). If it is a very severe, sharp pain, it may be a cyst rupturing. This usually is very painful but heals on its own with no complications. If the pain doesn't go away, you should definitely see a doctor.If it's in your back, closer to your spine and a little higher than your hip bone, it could be your kidneys. Common causes of kidney pain are kidney stones and urinary tract infections (UTIs). If it is a UTI that has spread to the kidneys, you may have fever, nausea, or pain while urinating. Kidney stones are typically very, very painful if they cause pain at all. Your doctor can give you antibiotics for a UTI or diagnose kidney stones via an x-ray. Lastly, pain in the lower right side that gets worse when you move can be appendicitis. Appendicitis is often accompanied by digestive problems such as vomiting or diarrhea. If you think you have appendicitis, go to the emergency room right away. If not treated promptly, an inflamed appendix can rupture, which is a very serious complication. It may be sciatica. Check out some info on sciatica on the web. Your sciatic nerve may be tingling.If you suddenly start feeling pain in your lower back or hip that radiates down from your buttock to the back of one thigh and into your leg, your problem may be a protruding disk in your lower spinal column pressing on the roots to your sciatic nerve. Sciatica (lumbar radiculopathy) may feel like a bad leg cramp that lasts for weeks before it goes away. You may have pain, especially when you sit, sneeze or cough. You may also feel weakness, "pins and needles" numbness, or a burning or tingling sensation down your leg. See a doctor to have your condition diagnosed and start a course of treatment.
