I am very sore on top of my right hip, especially when turning over in bed and sometimes bending down. I tested negative for arthritis in April, had a kidney stone March, 2013 ( second in 10 years) and sometimes have back pain because of an old injury from a herniated disc. This is different from past pain but rather more a soreness or inflammation. It s not constant but more persistent the last 6 months.
Hi, which test was done which told you that it is negative for arthritis, normally a plane X-Ray can diagnose arthritis, and in many circumstances, It's very early not to be seen on X-ray, blood tests only indicate towards inflammatory arthritis, like Rheumatoid, so get screened your hip and the best in your case if you have persistent pain is an MRI. For your disc problem continue regular exercises and do not do anything to precipitate the prolapse. I hope I helped you
