A member asked:
Do you think i should i go to the er for my back/ leg pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to say: If the pain is bad enough for you, then it is your call whether you need to or not and its always better to be safe. If there is any swelling or redness, then yes definitely. If you have any changes in urination or bowel movements, then yes definitely as well.
