My daughter who is 38 has spent the last 6 years with chronic pain in the buttocks area. She has had a hysterectomy, 2 back spinal fusions and finally a surgery where they actually cut the periformis muscle. She is now addicted to pain medicines(morphine) and has no quality of life. I know there is some special Dr. who can help her, we just haven t found he/she yet. I want my daughter to have her life back and so does she . Can you help, please?
Hi, thank-you for providing the brief history of your daughter. As he had past surgeries of spine, hysterectomy and performs muscle the pain in the hip is due to the nerve dysfunction in the lumbar spine. As she is 38 and suffering from hip pain I will advise to undergo physical therapy. In my clinical practice most cases with spine injuries, post spine surgeries, have always responded well to physical therapy. In fact I should say, they are functionally active and even age has not restricted them to achieve the best quality of life. Try out physical therapy. The process may be longer, but the recovery is for sure. If you have any particular query on how and what I can surely help you. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
