Re: hip or gluteal muscle pain!!!

[Guest guest]

Oh, Debbie, can I ever relate to what you're going through! This is my

most common pain, and one that I work on with yoga. The adductor muscles

are the ones that are screaming here, and they can be challenging to

relax. Warm baths (preferrably in a jacuzzi) help the most. Massage often

makes it worse. Walking helps.

I let my rheumatologist know about this ache the last time I saw him, and

he told me that it's pretty common among his FMS patients.

How funny, I thought I was the only one with this. A few years ago, I

was bowling with my kids and we were speeding through a line of

bowling to get done before the alley closed. All of the sudden I went

to throw the bowl and something in hip just went " zing " and its hurt

ever since. I have periods where it stops or isn't as bad and I've

had it xrayed what not - no explanation just this nagging pain if I

sit too long, stand too long, walk too long. Right on the " butt " bone

as I call it. Feels like you are sitting with a tennis ball under

your butt cheek. I take Mobic when it gets really bad.

Thanks and !

I don't feel so alone now. I have been sitting on a heat pad or ice

most of the day. Ice helps better. Where can I find Mobic? What is it

anyway? I took a Darvocet about an hour ago and it's helped some.

Hopefully my rheum can give me something else for it.

This sounds like what I have. I have what is called SI Joint pain. It is the

joint where your pelvis and spine all connect and the tissue and joint get

inflames. Ask your ortho or neuro if you have one. I have SI injections that I

get that sometimes ease it up but I mostly do therapy.

Hope this helps.

God Bless.

I can feel it under my right butt cheek, and it's deep in there.

Does anyone with hip pain have this type pain? Or someone with tailbone

area pain since it's near that? I see my rheum on Friday.

Hi Dawn,

Are SI joints in your very low back area on each side? My pain is

much lower, to the right of my pubic area, in my gluteal area.

Thanks for sharing.

Debbie:

Mobic is similar to Celbrex or Vioxx both of which were recently taken

off the market. Its not as strong and doesn't have the same side

effects. Mobic is what most Dr's are prescribing for inflammatory

types of pain these days since they can no longer prescribe Celebrex

or Vioxx. Hope that helps. It's like ibuprofrin times 10..

I have a similar issue but my Dr.said it was bursitis. I thought

only Grannies got that! LOL! It is deep. The bursa gets inflamed

with walking too. If my hubby accidentally thwacks my hip while I am

laying on one side I will scream outloud in my sleep.

I also have my hips " get stuck " . Like if I was sitting in a chair

and needed to open my knees wider. Then the tendon or what ever is

holding it will make a pop or snap that hurts LIKE CRAZY and it is

released.

I am going to have them do the cortisone injections in both hips

while I am out for the injections into the spine. I have these

visions of me drinking water and looking like a fountain.

Good luck!

Hi Barbara,

Thanks for writing. I saw my rheum today and he said my piriformis

muscle is inflammed. It's a muscle that starts at our sacrum and

extends to hip bone on right side. He said to only use heat. Avoid

walking, bending and squatting. He did give me a Medrol dose pack

which should help my shoulder, too. Maybe when you try to open your

knees when sitting, you might be straining your piriformis. It

control rotational moves with your legs.

Since I am now 50 I can be a granny!

Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for the information.

My rheum gave me Lodine which is what my GI doc recommended. It doesn't

harm the stomach as much as others. Tomorrow I will start my Medrol

pack and it should help with the pain. I used to take Vioxx until my

insurance changed. It's good I stopped it before it was taken off the

market. I can't take Celebrex because of my sulfa allergy.
