Hi There,

Hip pain is hugely common and so is constipation. Your wife should go and see her physican for a good assessment of her medical history and family history and a physical exam. Based on that information , her doctor will decide if she needs other testing such as hip films to look for arthritis or a colonoscopy to look for diverticulosis or colon polyps or a pelvic ultrasound to look for fibroids or ovarian cysts

take care
