hi,my hubby is 39 and he has really terrible lower back pain just above his butt. he complains of sharp pain at the point where his spinal cord touches his butt.he has been having this issue for years,at 1st we thought it was because he loved taking really cold drinks and taking a lot of sweet things(coca-cola especially),we are from a developing country where things dont really work well...what suggestions do you have please...thanks a lot
Dear patient there are multiple reason for back pain. Since his age is 39 most common cause are 1. Mechanical back pain 2.disc prolapse 3. Listless 4. Osteoporosis. Your husband taking excess of cold Chat Doctor. In teased weight due to obesity puts strain on back and further increase back pain. I would like to advice MRI of lumbosacral spine with screening of whole spine which would help in coming to diagnosis and planning further treatment.
