Low Back Pain: Very common for humans to experience back pain.  Acute onset of back pain usually resolves in 4-6 weeks.  If pain isn't improved, worsens, radiates into legs, causes tingling and numbness into legs, weakness of legs, associated with numbness in the perianal area, bowel or bladder problem, fever, chill, unexplained weight loss, of pain while lying down regardless of position seek medical evaluation.

Question 6

why do i have lower back pain after being on my feet at work all day?

Accepted Answer

Mechanics: Low back pain after standing all day could also be a sign of mild degenerative changes to the lumbar spine. Poor posture and  jobs that require excessive lifting can also predispose you to muscle fatigue and injury.  It is important to avoid high heeled shoes and have adequate arch supports to decreased stress on the lower back.  Be sure to visit your md if the pain persists.

Accepted Answer

Back pain: Pulsating back pain can be a sign of an aortic aneurysm which would be unlikely in your age group. Nevertheless I recommend that your physician examine you to diagnose the problem with your back especially seeing that your symptoms are more noticeable while lying on your back and seems more common when you're not working.

Sciatica: Sciatica is a nerve root  compression issue that can be caused by spinal problems that include a bulging or compressive disc, injury or destruction of the bony elements of the spinal bones, dislocation of the spinal bones that causes compression on the nerve roots, scoliosis of varying degrees, and even just being overweight with a big belly ! See an orthopedist or chiropractor to get an idea

Question 9

hi there, i'm a 39 yr old female. i have a small swollen (hard) lymph node in my right groin area. i have lower back pain and pain in my right hip. ?

Accepted Answer

Needs medical exam: You should see either your primary doctor or your OB/GYN as soon as possible and have that evaluated.  It's possible that it may be nothing more than a rogue urinary tract infection.  But the hard and swollen lymph node needs to be evaluated by medical personnel (doctor preferably) sooner rather than later.  Cheers!
