What should I do about increasing back pain?

Hi, I'm Tanille Henrico. I had a decompression and fusion back surgery on my lower back 5 years ago. And I'm on Lyrica 75mg twice a day and Neurontin 500mg three times a day. My back is now starting to get more and more painful by the day. And I must drink extra pain medication every day. What must I do? Please whatsapp me back

Looks like you're suffering from a lot of backache. Even though Lyrica and Neurontin kinds of drugs are being taken, back pain may worsen, and this may be a brand new problem or the deterioration of what used to be. You have to meet your doctor for a check-up to diagnose the cause of the recurrent pain. Sometimes, it is necessary to change your meds or use additional treatments to reduce the pain as much as possible.

Hello I’m male 40 aged Fall down from scooter extact 2 weeks. This is my chest CT scan. I have no issue in breathing. Having little pain back side while walking. I have left collor bone have air crack. Now I am in complete rest. Chest CT scan Impression: Calcified parenchymal nodules measuring 13-12mm in the left lingural. 4th rib fracture and 6th rib fracture lateral aspect with adjustent hemothorax 3rd rib fracture- posterior aspect

Male | 40

Based on your CT scan, it looks like you have some fractures in your ribs, which could be causing the pain in your back when walking. The hemothorax next to your rib fractures is a collection of blood outside your lungs. This might be making it a bit tough for you to move around comfortably. It's great that you are resting, which is really important for healing those fractures. Make sure to keep monitoring your pain levels and follow up with your doctor for any further guidance.

I’m 22 years and I’m having thigh ache and I used pain relief last month and it stopped but now it’s aching me again

Female | 22

Thigh pain can be due to various reasons such as muscle strain, overuse, or even bad posture. Sometimes, you're sitting for too long, and you'll feel your thighs are hurting. Alongside this issue is that you are sitting for a long time and your thighs hurt. Do some light stretching, and apply heat to the affected area. Be active and avoid long periods of sitting down to allow them to feel well.

These­ symptoms signify heart trouble. It could be a he­art attack or angina - artery blockages. But muscle strain and indige­stion can also be possible causes. If fee­ling such things, talk to a cardiologist
