1147125 tn?1265114765 During the time it took for it to finally completely rupture, I was in increasing pain and going to numerous Drs and Pain clinics to get answers. I think back injuries are subjective to the person having the pain, not what actually happened to get the pain. I've heard of folks just getting out of bed and herniating a disc by twisting funny. You might want to get another opinion before you settle anything.

Avatar m tn Spinal stenosis can cause a lot of nerve pain (burning throughout the low back into the hips, pulsating throb and achiness in the low back and hips, shooting pain and pins and needles sensation that runs through the buttocks and hips and down one or both legs). Nerve pain is best treated with anti-convulsants and SNRI/SSRI anti-depressants. Neurontin (generic: Gabapentin) or Lyrica (generic: NA) and Cymbalta (generic: NA) are good medications to try to help with this pain.

Avatar m tn Hello, Having intercourse will not cause lower back pain unless and until some reproductive organs are involved or there are adhesions in the abdomen. The commonest causes of chronic low back pain are lumbar strain, nerve irritation, bone and joint conditions (arthritis), osteoporosis, lumbar radiculopathy, narrowing or stenosis of the spinal cord cavity. Even bad posture can lead to low back pain. It is extremely difficult to find out the cause without detailed information.
Avatar f tn Tyl-Codeine #4 60mg (for back pain), also increased; and Lyrica (lower back). I also have severe pain from a lumbar joint syndrome, where the butterfly joint of the back is fracturing and arthritic and pushing on a nerve there, but only relief is to lay down... I cannot stand more than about 10 minutes at a time, don't fix dinner anymore, find it very hard to keep up housework, may get a CT scan from an orthopedist later this summer in case I need some stabilizing surgery or better drugs.
4385446 tn?1353798268 Depression might cause it, or it might cause depression. Nobody knows except there is some connection. Statins might therefore cause it if they lower LDL too much, but there isn't solid proof this happens. Thyroid problems can cause it, and thyroid problems can also cause anxiety and/or depression, so another possible connection there. Might be genetic causes. As for meds, they're so nuts as to how differently they affect us it's impossible to know.
