My back has been hurting since I had my c-section in 2007. But in the past year it has gotten worse. When I had my c-section, the spinal hit a nerve a couple times before the anesthesiologist actually hit the right spot. I had horrible pain shooting down my right leg while she was doing this. Could this back pain I am experiencing now be because of this spinal? It seems the pain is in the area of the spinal.
