Sevre back pain been told muscle spasim taking cocodamol and iburofen but now having loose bowels is this ok male 30?

Get a MRI or image: Get a MRI or image of the spine so that we have an accurate diagnosis. It is not clear if the medications are causing the loose bowels, but I would stop them for a few days and see what happens. Once you have the MRI results let us know and we can discuss next steps.
