A member asked:
Painful spot on spine @ thoraco-lumbar junction. no radiating or deferred pain, or numbness. mri & bone scan results normal. myofascial trigger point?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Back pain: Thoraco Lumbar junction is a high stress zone. Has there been any trauma? In the absence of any MRI evidence of disc herniation, there may be a role for chiropractic manipulation. Have you tried anti-inflammatory medication as well?
