Back pain: I recommend consulting an orthopedic specialist or going to a clinic that specializes in spine and back problems. It's important to obtain a proper diagnosis and be treated appropriately. Bring your xrays with you. A negative plain spine xray doesn't rule out all musculoskeletal problems,however. Other testing may be recommended.
