Elevated ESR with localized pain may indicate inflammatory or autoimmune issue. Please take an MRI Spine + Rheumatoid Panel to assess underlying cause.

Take a RA Factor Test (Rheumatoid Factor) Test or Take a ANTI NUCLEAR ANTIBODY (ANA) Test

I am experiencing lower back pain that started from the right side of the hip joint. Now the pain has also started on the left hip joint and extends to the left thigh. I am unable to walk, sit, or sleep properly. My blood report shows HLA B27 positive. I would like to know what this means and what steps I should take for treatment.
