I am only 16 weeks pregnant but I have had sharp but almost constant pain in my right hip for the last 3 weeks. Also a dull pain in lower back on that side. It has progressively worsened and today I stood up from my chair and almost fell over the pain was so sharp and strong. Not it it radiating down the back on my thigh to my knee. Paracetamol hasn't touched it.
I saw the doctor last weds and she suggested I mentioned it to my midwife ( next fri - no appointments before this) as they can refer faster than the docs.
Is this correct and is it reasonable to wait another week? Is there any point trying to see a doctor or will they just point me towards midwife? And more importantly-does anyone have an idea what it could be?
