How Can Backache Be Treated?

I m 50 yrs old. I am currently taking pain medication for back pain etc. . Today I was trying to move Dresser over a little bit, I heard a loud pop in my lower back. I immediatly layed flat on my stomach to try to relieve the pain. That didn t work so I tried to make out of the bedroom to the couch. Well, I didn t make and this time I laid on my back. The next thing I know my better half is really upset. I asked her what happened and she said it look like was having seizure and that had stopped breathing. She called 911. I talked with EMTs and recommended I should And at least get an MRI. I told them that if need be and I don t feel better Iwould go to the Hospital ..After they left my better half asked if I had wet myself, I felt around and sure enough I had,which basically means I had lost body functions. I hope you since of what I ve typed. Thanks

I would make sure you get a MRI of the lumbar spine.

This will evaluate you to see if you have a herniated disc in the lower back, which can cause back pain, leg pain, and bladder issues.
