Suggest Treatment For Severe Back Ache

The lower rt side of my back is severely hurting, also having a lot trouble walking. My rt leg has some numbness to and sometimes it will feels like theres 400 lbs. sitting on them. When i woke up yesterday, both of my legs from the knee down were swolen, you cannot even tell where my ankles are. The last 2 days I ve been having strange behaviors, I fall asleep standing up and I ve fallen asleep on the toilet, theres times I ll be talking a bunch of nonsense and I ve ran into the furniture atleast a dozen times, enough have 2 black eyes from it. The area that is hurting the most is in the sciatic area. Anything I do, that area will severely hurt me. The year of 2005 I ve had surgery done on my back, laser disc decompression. I ve been doing alot better since then, but it seems everything is about to start over. I m also having spasms in both my hands. I hope that you will be able to help me or give me a general idea as to whats wrong with me.

After going through your query I concluded that you are having many age related problems. As you got severe swelling of both legs you need to be done your kidney,liver and heart functions done. You are probably having lumbar spondylitis. Diacerine, glucosamine and Mecobalamine is helpful. For pain relief ibuprofen is helpful.You can discuss your doctor about it.
