A member asked:

16yo w severe back pain radiating to rt side. ct showed mesenteric adenitis. mri showed schmorl node endplate changes at 4 levels elevated ana?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Schmorl Nodes: Are normal findings. You have some active inflammation (the adenitis) causing your pain (but it's probably not from your spine). This can be from a number of causes, your doctor knows you best, and can narrow down the possibilities.
