A member asked:

Was in a terrible rollover several yrs ago. would a tear in the illiolumbar ligament cause stabbing pain 24/7? i have severe stenosis at l5/s1 but the pain is to the right of the spine. spinal as well as si joint injections have not worked at all?

Obtain a consult with a neurosurgical or orthopedic physician for recommended treatment. "Severe stenosis" at L5/S1 may require surgical intervention.

Dr Berryman provides excellent advice. There is a need to uncover the precise pain generator and no indication for further injections at this point
