What Does Numbness In The Lower Back Indicate?

I had spinal cord injury one and a half year back my lower body is paralysed and i dont have sensations also..after my surgery in march 2016 I have started taking dolo 650 and Maxgalin 75 as I get these unbearable electric shock kind of pains in my legs. Because I have been taking these medicines everyday since more than a year so I wanted to ask if it is ok or should I get my liver checked.?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The pain you are experiencing is due to nerve damage. Continue Dolo and Pregabalin. Tramadol which is an opioid medication can also be added to treatment regime for extra pain relief. Since you have been taking Dolo for a long time, it is best to get liver function test done.
