Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have lower back pain. It is like sharp pain whenever I move or breathe too quickly. I also feel very bloated and it feels like I have gas in my stomach but the pain is intolerable and is nothing like I have ever experienced with stomach gas. It is hard to move or sit down and now the pain is slowly moving to my leg as well. I am having problems breathing because of the pain in the lower spine. I am currently on antidepressants.
Please help. Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I read your query and can understand your concern.
Regarding your symptoms of lower back pain aggravated with different postures, I propose you have developed spondylitis. To rule out abdominal colic please do a spinal x-ray or MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) for confirmation.
I suggest you take the following medications. Consult your doctor and take the medications only with their consent.
If your symptoms persist, schedule another appointment for follow-up.
Thank you.
