A member asked:
I've been having back pain for a year i did an x-ray recently and i have arthritis in my lower back nothing seems to help the pain except ultram

Consider MRI : In general, an X-ray is not a very sensative test to look at causes of back pain. If your symptoms persist, consider requesting an MRI which is a much more sensative test and will likely show a more specific diagnosis for your pain and treatment options.
