What Causes Severe Back Pain And Dizziness?

I have had a back pain for 1 week and I m dizzy and I felt nausea and they thought I had a urinary tract infection, so they gave me an antibiotic and I took it for one week and it did not work. So I got a higher dosage and different brand and I finished it and I still have the pain and it comes and goes, and my groin. hurts and my lower back hurts and I still feel nausea and headaches.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sharp pain below the shoulder blade . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like acute back injury , whiplash , sciatica , osteoarthritis or fibromyalgia. I would suggest you consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor may CT scan or MRI along with physical examination . Doctor may prescribe anti inflammatory , muscle relaxant nerve supplement, anti emetic drug along with physical therapy. For now apply warm compresses to back and neck and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain . Doctor may also recommend surgery in case of disc problem. Also avoid bending forward.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
