A member asked:

Husband has spinal stenosis & has struggled with back strain. sitting on chair that collapsed this week. soreness & difficulty standing. when 2 c dr?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Soon: If he has progressive weakness, or changes in his bowel or bladder function, then he must go to the emergency room or go see a spine surgeon immediately. If he simply has increased pain that is manageable without weakness, then he can call his spine surgeon or spinal specialist and get scheduled to be evaluated in next few days.
