Hi Doctor, I have been getting a pain in my right hip bone more of a soreness than a pain. My GP has done blood tests but nothing has come to light. I am in the throws of the menopause. I also think that I may have aniety issues which have come about since my partner passed away could this pain been linked to either the anxiety or the menopause
Hello, As what I see from the history is it's a combination of menopause and anxiety issue.  Several cases have been reported to my clinic in the past 12 years and most of them have recovered well with proper guidance towards the treatment. In your case, menopause can lead to hormonal changes and as you mentioned Menopause I can expect your age to be above 40.  So in this age, there are changes in women's body about having weakness of muscles, osteoporosis and lower back muscles weakness. Anxiety is also one of the cause as during anxiety one doesn't feel like to do any kind of physical activity and feels more of a depression. I would request you to start with meditation, deep breathing exercises and some physical exercise like aerobics. Also, do not become too much introvert and try to be extrovert.  So that you can mingle within the social life and have more things to do. In case if you have any particular habit like dancing, singing or anything. You can start taking classes for the same for the community so your anxiety levels Chat Doctor.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Jay In
