A member asked:

Low back pain, searing towards hip to ankle +6 mos. xray ok, dr wants mri. is there really any effective tx or likely just have to live with it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends on: cause, but if it is a herniated disc pressing against a nerve causing pain, surgical decompression is a possible solution. Follow your doctor's advice and get your MRI.
