Why's my back still hurting from a spinal tap that i had weeks ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: If it is still hurting and several weeks have gone by, you should either see the doctor that did the tap or your primary care doctor to determine if more evaluation needs to be done. Sometimes if the tap is difficult, you can be sore for several weeks.
