How Can severe Lower Back Pain Be Treated?

I went to my obgyn today for a checkup on my pelvic organ prolapse that I have been diagnosed with. I have started with low back pain now and have no choice by the end of the day to take something for it with a must to lie down. I mentioned it to her and she replied that the backache was not coming from the prolapse. Well I disagree with her! I know my body and will continue to disagree on that report. What do you think?

Hi i am Dr Ahmed Aly
thanks for using HealthcareMagic site ,
I had gone through your question and understand your concerns ..

In my opinion i think it may exaggerate your back pain , may be your organ prolapse is not the main reason but it increases the back pain for sure , no doubts .
Hope you feel better soon , you may use painkillers like advil tabs when needed , hot gentle massaging with topical anti-inflammatory gels , B12 vitamin supplements and muscle relaxants will be effective in most of the cases .
If that pain persists i recommend further check up with X rays and MRI scans to exclude any spinal injuries and follow these results with your physician for proper evaluation and management .
