Q: chronic back pain, discovered that a side effect for tamsulosin is back pain, of course this means that i am always in pain. i am quitting this treatment in hopes that my pain will lessen ????

: Back pain is a very non-specific symptom and can occur with practically any med. All persistent back pains should be assessed by a doc The incidence of back pain caused by Tamsulosin is very low. You can also ask your doc to try another med. Good luck
