Sore hips

I really need some help here. I have a back problem and have a huge amount of medication to take every day, but I struggle to sleep at night because every time I lie down my hips feel like they're about to pop out of the socket and then my knees start hurting and my sciatica starts off. My sciatica is in my right leg but my left leg also hurts now. I've put 3 pillows between my knees, but this does not help. I literally wake up at night screaming with the pain. What is causing this and how do I stop it happening??

Oh my god, that sounds really awful. You are doing all you can at home but I really think you need to get a referral to an orthapaedic specialist.It sounds like a severe case of SPD

It's awful. It's like my hips are constantly being forced out of their sockets and then my feet go cold too. I think I'm just going to have bite the bullet and go to the dr.
