I went to a doctor, because I was experiencing lower back pain. They had an xray done and said my spine is missing a hook. After a few months, the pain went away, but lately, it has started hurting again. What does it mean, that I have a hook missing from my spine and can it cause major problems in my lower back?
Hi, Thank you for posting your query.First, we would need to have a look at your spine x-rays to determine the nature of your problem. It is not clear, what your doctors meant, when they said that a hook is missing from the spine. The common causes of pain related to spine include pressure on the spinal nerves due to slipped disc, etc. For more information, MRI of spine may be helpful. I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow-up queries or if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor. Ly/
