Are the medicines i am taking reason for this back pain? What Should i do for this, shuold i continue to take pain killer for this or is this a serious issue which i should consult ?
Dear patient Angioplasty procedure will not lead to back pain and both conditions are not related directly. What is your age ? It should be mentioned as reasons for pain vary in different age groups.  Medicine for heart will not lead to increased back pain. I would like to do X-ray of lumbosacral spine anteroposterior and lateral views to rule out back injury. Meanwhile, start tab attract twice a day with tab moral 4 mg twice a day for pain relief. Tab Antacid should be taken with them to prevent gastritis. If X-ray shows abnormal findings please consult orthopedic surgeon nearby your area.
