Bad pain between my right leg and hips.
4 years back I was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis. The doctor gave me medication for it and it had stopped. But few years later the pain is back and it's worse than ever, I cannot even lift my leg properly especially since winters have started now. What should I do now at home right now. The pain switched from my left leg to right.
