[|Human|] I have chronic back pain of 20 yrs & have managed itbquitebwell by, walking, daily exercise regime. I now have developed a very severe pain on my r) hip & get pain when I attempt to turn to the right. I even get pain when driving, cannot turn to the right without pain. I am a very healthy, fit, 68 year old, weighing 9 st.    What could cause this?
[|AI|]  Hi, From history it seems that you might be having osteoarthritis changes in your vertebral column. Due to these changes there might be stretching or irritation of nerves giving you this problem of back pain and restricted movement. Go for x-ray lumbosacral region and find out the changes of often- arthritis. Go for physiotherapy and back extension exercise after consulting orthopedic surgeon. Ok and take care.
