Re: lower right back pain

: i have had this pain in my lower right back for about 7 months. my doctor did a complete bone scan and it came up that i have mild arthritis developing in the left hip, the complete opposite side of where the pain is. what could this be?.the pain is about 8 inches long. it is in the lower righ back and goes a little bit into the right buttock. can you help me

Shelly,
I suffered with this/similar problem for over a year. I had to take muscle relaxants and anti-flammatory drugs to mask/relieve the pain. One day I decided to quit eating beef, within one month I was pain free and remain to this day. I now eat beef once or twice a month with no problems. It's great! I know it sounds silly, but it worked for me and it beats being in a drug induced fog.
