A member asked:

I suffer from anxiety and i will travel, i feel a burning sensation in the lower back, can be anxiety ?! just keep thinking about it, i can not relax.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Definitely yes: High anxiety or travel anxiety can contribute or trigger lower back pain or burning sensation, specially if you have a previous history of lubmar spine degenerative process or disc herniation (discopathy) For longer travel , over 8 hrs I recommend Triazolam. 0,25 it will help relax lumbar muscles and allows good 3-4 hrs nap .

Dr Anyanwu and another doctor agreed
