What Is Causing My Severe Back Pain With Temporary Relief From Keflex?
I've been having undiagnosed back problems with severe pain for a while now, and nothing has been able to get rid of it. My doctor gave me a med called Keflex (cephalexin) for a skin infection, and it somehow causes the pain in my back to temporarily stop...could that mean anything at all?

Hi,
As you got relief from back pain with cephalxin indicates that there might be having some infection in your urinary tract.
Due to infection in urinary tract you get this problem of having low back pain and with antibiotic medicine infection controls and you get relief from pain.
Go for routine urine check up for pus cells and WBC.
Take plenty of water.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Ok and take care.
