A member asked:

I was in an accident and have pain in both my upper and lower back. i also have stinging pains in my feet that i never had before except if my foot had fallen asleep. is that related to the back pain, even though i don't have numbness in my legs?

Maybe: There could be an injury to your vertebrae or disk bulge. This would require an exam and possibly an MRI or other tests to make a true connection between the pain and your symptoms.

I believe: It is back related. Speedy recovery.

Possibly: Which part of the foot? How often? Consistent in location suggests nerve involvement from lower lumbars.
