Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I am a Breast Cancer survivor - completed treatment in 2006. I had lymphnodes (8?) removed. My lower back is hurting in the spine area and it sometimes creeps up my back. I have noticed it especially worsen this week. Also - it seems like my immune system is challenged because I am getting sick easily these days, esp with allergies. Any suggestions?
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
With such presentations in my clinic, I would first rule out serious conditions like metastasis from breast cancer in your back so You should do ray dorsolumbosacral spine and MRI TO exclude any lesions .
