Is my chronic lower back pain nerve-related?

I am a 43 year old female, I have been experiencing chronic lower back pain for the last 8 months, the pain feels like it is nerves, I have trouble walking and can only walk around 20 metres. I take lyrica and palexia, they do not seem to be working. This is having a huge impact in my life

Chronic lower back pain can have various causes, such as spinal herniation, muscle strain, or spinal stenosis. If the pain feels nerve-related and affects your ability to walk, it could indicate nerve compression or damage. If medications like Lyrica and Palexia aren't effective, consider discussing other options with an orthopedist, such as physical therapy, injections, or surgery.

I'm a 18 year old female and I've been having cramps in my left hand, mainly from elbow under to wrist and my fingers feel kind of stiff. It happened for the first time 3/4 days ago and went away automatically in about 20 mins. It happened twice today and again went on it's own. Nothing done to trigger it. A bit of neck pain. Have generalised anxiety disorder and currently tapering off of Paxidep 12.5 . The cramps kind of feel like weakness and dull ache. I can't call it painful as it does not cause pain but a bit uncomfortable.

I’m 50 yrs old and have been suffering with planters fasciitis for years. It started after working at Home Depot. I seen an orthopedic back in 2002 ish, got an injection and was fine. I then left HD and came back yrs later. Now it’s back and I believe I’m also dealing with Achilles tendonitis. My mother who drove a bus for 30 yrs has also dealt with this for a very long time. She can barely walk and I’ve started limping. I don’t want this to slow me down but the doctors here in Wichita Falls are not much help and my mother hasn’t been able to get any relief in California or now in Arizona. My question is is there anything we can do. I have 6 kids, 3 of which are still in school. I can’t just slow down. And I hate seeing how miserably mother is. We are both taking Duloxitine, which helps sometimes. Besides surgery is there anything we can do?

Female | 50

Plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis can be quite bothersome, but there are several ways to ease the pain. Try stretching exercises for your calves and feet, wear supportive shoes, use orthotic inserts, apply ice to reduce inflammation, and take over-the-counter pain relievers. It's also important to avoid activities that make the pain worse.

i'm 19 years old and i have problem in hip they told me that i have to go under operation of total hip replacement so i was asking you to suggest me where i can go where they have good successful rate and even i was asking if my both legs will have the same length after operation couse i'm suspicious right now affected leg is smaller compared to other and if i was asking if i will walk on my own

Male | 19

Hp replacement solves issues like pain and ineffectiveness. Top hospitals for the procedure are the ones that have good results, so look for a place and hospitals that have gained a positive reputation among patients. The surgery will then make your legs more even in length and if you take care of yourself and follow the therapy programs properly, you will be able to walk on your own as before.

Sir Shoulder pain carry to Arm 8 month ago to yet

Male | 38

Your shoulder and arm pain lasting 8 months sounds difficult. This prolonge­d discomfort could stem from muscle or joint issues, like­ inflammation or injury. It's crucial to give your arm and shoulder proper re­st. Ice packs can help reduce­ swelling. Gentle stre­tching exercises, as guide­d by a physical therapist, may provide relie­f too.

Back pain headache and i wake up in the night for washroom

Female | 23

Back troubles can be a result of improper posture, bearing heavy loads, or remaining seated for a long period. Tension and not drinking enough water can be the reasons for headaches. The urge to urinate in the middle of the night might be a bladder issue. To recuperate, begin with simple training, increase your water intake, and get to bed earlier.

Female | 30

A pinched or irritated nerve in your neck, known as cervical radiculopathy, can cause pain that spreads from your neck to your shoulder and down your spine. Other symptoms include numbness and tingling. It can be caused by wear and tear or injury. Treatment options include rest, physical therapy, and medications to reduce inflammation and pain.

Right hip subchondral sclerosis with fewill defindradiolucent areasnoted inhead of right femur

Male | 34

Subchondral sclerosis is when the bone becomes harder. Radiolucent areas are places where the bone isn’t as dense. These changes can cause pain and stiffness in the hip area. They may occur because of natural aging processes and wear and tear on our bodies over time. To relieve these symptoms, try doing exercises or going for physical therapy sessions.

yes .. Acupuncture can heal internally almost everything which is not possible in allopathy medicine.
Acupuncture puts the body in self correcting zone and since body has ability to self heal and repair you can experience wonderful results.
