What causes pain radiating from sacral area to the hip?
Patient: I started having pain which radiated from my sacral area, over my hip and down the front of my thigh. I went to a chiropractor who helped with the back and hip pain but i have a constant intense throbbing pain in the front of my thigh....any ideas? I am 60 yrs old. 6 ft. tall and approximately 150lbs. Have a history of osteopenia. Doctor: Hello,Your symptoms could be suggestive of chronic degeneration in the coxo-femoral joint or sacro-ileal. For this reason, I would recommend performing a pelvic X-ray study, coupled with both hip joints X-ray study.Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
