Hi,Rosemary,
Thanks for query,
Lower back pain may be due to osteoartheritic changes in the pelvic bone or in vertebrae.
As you take vodka for long time,to have any effect in liver you may go for ultra sound to rule out any problem in liver.
Low back pain and cirrohosis has no relation.
ok and bye.
