You were told you have a 'crushed vertebrae' and nothing further was done?
Which vertebrae? They are assigned a letter and a number.
Each vertebrae can cause pain elsewhere in the body. It could easily be related to yours.
What are your parents or parent doing about all this?

My parents sent me the hospital and I got a MRI done about 2 days ago. I think is the 4 or 5th one up from the last bottom

So... X ray a month ago, MRI 2 days ago?
BUT what is being done? The chances of the pain you have in your side and hip being related to that vertebrae are high.

What I suggest is that you stop going to the hospital unless you are going for scheduled tests there. You really need a regular orthopedist.

Find out the letter and number of the vertebrae and then you (or we) can look up the path of the nerve that goes out from it.

The largest nerve off the spine (or derived from spinal nerves) is the sciatic, and the pain is called sciatica. It is off L4 through S3. (lumbar and sacral) It's probably the most common nerve that gets pain. The pain goes down the lower back and buttock and down the back of the leg.

Some people find more help from a good chiropractor, especially if the orthopedist doesn't seem too concerned about pain, or who just signs you up for PT. Does your family has health insurance?
