What Is The Treatment For Lower Back Pain?
I know I have chronic lower back pain. It's in the lower center of back my. I have had numerous injections and nerve blocks, nothing works. I cannot stand longer than 5 or 10 minutes without going into a terrible sweat and the chronic pain starts. When I sit the pain goes away, however, I still have a numbing, throbbing pain that stays with me continually sitting. I was referred to a Rheumatologist who told me my SED level was 79, he put me on meds that did not touch the pain and I'm even more miserable than I've ever been in my life. The Rheumatologist has changed my meds at least 3 times and I still am getting no relief. HELP. Have I been diagnosed wrong. What is wrong with me. This pain came over a period of time and has gradually has increased. Did I mention I have a small disc, but every doctor seems to think that the source of my back pain could not be related to that tiny disc. What should I do. I need relief. I want to walk without being in pain and I'm young with a child.

dear friend your low back pain seems muscular pain.if all reports are normal then physiotherapy and exercise will help you a lot on long term basis. presently if you have severe pain then take muscle relaxant medicine like combination of aceclofenac+paracetamol+chlorzoxazon and consult physiotherapist.
-exercise for low back pain- raise your leg sraight from hip joint without bending from knee after sleeping on back and then put down slowly. same exercise for another leg and then raise both leg simultaneously. sleep on abdomen and raise your head and chest backward. do all these exercise 40-50 times per day by increasing slowly daily.
