A member asked:
Is it normal to still have lower back pain nearly six months after a lumbar puncture?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Post LP pain: No, it is not common to have pain 6 months after a lumbar puncture. Are there any other symptoms that you are having? It is time to consider what is causing the pain, and then what to do about it.
