Constant severe LBP: For constant severe chronic low back pain you should start by seeing your regular dr. First. Your dr. Will obtain a medical history from you, perform a regular checkup and examine your back, possibly order labs, and send your for an xray & likely mri. Once your dr. Has an idea as to what may be causing your back, targeted treatment & appropriate referrals can be made.

Pinched Nerve: Sounds like you have a pinched nerve in your back. I would suggest seeing a pain/spine specialist to evaluate you further to evaluate what level and what can be done to treat you. There are interventional treatments besides medications and surgeries that might reduce or eliminate the pain altogether.
