I am a 24 years old boy.I was into martial arts from 8th grade to 11th grade which is around 4 yrs. I was learning an art which needs too much use of legs. Since my 11th grade I am having a pain in my leg joint (where the leg starts), I am not sure if it is a pain in the bone or anything else. Few of my observations are 1) pain increases in winter and is gone in summers. 2)the pain shifts from right leg joint to left leg joint. 3) pain increases at nit between 8 to 4 but in the early morning around 5:00 to 7:00 the pain goes away as though nothing ever happened. The pain however again comes back soon at around morning eight.

I have gone to many doctors. I have done 3 kinds of arthritis test. X-ray of spine and hip bone. Bloodtest. All the reports were very normal except that my ESR is 27. All the doctors have told me that they did not find anything unusual. All said that it would go away soon.I was given an antinflamatory tablet called Mobizox.The pain goes away completely when I take that tablet and its as though I get a new life but one tablet keeps me happy for only 24 hrs and then again I start getting the pain. My pain is repeating every winter from the past 6 yrs. All the readers trust me I become almost crippled when I get this pain. I am not able to sleep the whole night and m not able to move my leg at all. The pain is always there but it increases when I keep my steps. One more thing I noted about the pain is that the pain is a very different kind of pain and I feel as though it is hitting my brain. When it pains too much I also get fever. I don't smoke or take drugs. My weight is 62 and height is 5.10 feet. I will be very very happy if some one helps me. Thank you.

you know it took a long time for them to find my spine problems. It took a doctor to look at all the x-rays himself and not listened to the reports from the doctors who read the x-rays and found it right a way. I had spinal fission because of the pain in my legs. 13 years ago. Keep looking for a doctor that well listen to you. A pain clinic is good too. Look for a neurologist (nerve doctor). Good luck!

Hi. Hw are you, now ?
I was prescribed Mobizox many years ago too for severe pain (Spondylitis AND back pain). Continued using it off and on (more on !)
Not good at all as this med has negative side effects. PL try other types of meds and try to reduce the dosage gradually.
Go to docs who specialise in sports med - they mayb more conversant with this sort of injury - bone + ligament.
Try gentle yoga and Tai chi positions and keep up flexibility.
Have herbs that help strengthen joints and ligaments - as tea or whatever.
Yr wt appears too low fr yr ht - more good proteins and good fats may help reduce pain to some extent.
Don't GIVE UP. Best to u.

As per doctor I have to do change in my life style (with extensive back bone care and regular exercise) with medicine (Indocap SR, Nucort M-4 and Floxan MR. I am became to know my problem from last two year.

Accute stiffness of the spinal region in morning hours,
The pain makes my hip stiff in either side hip Joint . It fluctuates right to left .
Some times it feel worst condition/untolerable.
HLA B27 is negative in my case.

This pain in Hip called refereed pain that is due the back bone
There is inflammation in connecting tissues of hip joints which cause the pain.
Till the time this is unknown how this disease occurs and also there is no cure.
U Have to do above thing only that is exercise back bone and hip joints. In case of heavy pain take antiflammatory

That's all.

Keep tapping!- Edit

rd3690, sounds like you have some problem with your disk, and x ray can not detect slipped disc, all the symptoms you have said were in me, tried x ray which came out to be normal, go for an MRI of lumber spine, should be able to give a clearer pic, and try consulting a chiropractor.
I was told by the docs that I will be paralysed for rest life, thanks to chiro I am healthy like a horse. Middle finger to all the docs and surgeons, /,

all the best mate
