hey I have been experiencing extreme back pain that runs down my leg and has been present for about a week now and shows no signs of getting better. doing research online the only thing I might be able to diagnose myself with is sciatic pain, or pinched nerve in my lumbar? just curious if you all have any other ideas and of what treatments are commonly used bc I can barely work now +(   thanks JC
HI, Thank for asking to MCM It may too early to say anything it is better to try some symptomatic medicine first if every thing becomes alright then forget every thing if it does not give any relief then the investigation has to be taken in hand then and then the picture will be cleared whether it is sciatica or anything else, till then try acetaminophen+Diclofenac+chlorzoxazone thrice day with bed rest try little try relaxation therapy too I hope this will go away, have nice day.
