<human>: HI..my 55 yr old husband, tennis coach for 30yrs, who has had some lower right back pain at times that usually goes away in a few days is suddenly having acute pain in the right hip joint with some pain all around the hip? Intense pain when walking even after Ibuprofin, massage, heating pad?.. A sneeze just sent him over the edge!!!  What do you all think is mostly likely his problem? He is trying to wait it out a few more days to see if he gets any relief but I hate seeing hi suffer!!!! thanks so much!! :)
