What Are the Causes of Back & Hip Pain?
Injuries to the lower back often cause pain in the back as well as pain in the hip and legs. Inactivity, stress and repetitive movements strain the muscles, bones, joints and ligaments of a person’s lower back and hips. Over time, such trauma causes inflammation and pain. A person can apply ice to the affected area to immediately reduce pain and swelling, then seek medical care to reduce risk of further injury.
