Hi deeps ;

If you are a known case of Lumbar spondylosis and if the pain has increased then you please get investigated and treated .Please consult a Orthopaedic surgeon and even get a MRI done to find the status of your spine and if there is any herniation of disc.He will examine and advise treatment .Since the pain is severe and you have difficulty in sitting and travelling then he may advise you rest and traction or even if need be surgery.Please consult a doctor immediately.

Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.com. The pain of your indicates involvement of the radicals (nerves coming out of spinal cord). The causes for radiculopathy are many. MRI is one of the tests to see for slip disc which can compress the nerves and cause pain. So consult a neurologist for detailed evaluation. Do not hurry for surgical options because if not correctly selected for surgery you may not benefit and your problems persists. I hope you got the answer. Bye

u hv lumbar spondilosis from 8 yrs, now u r feeling pain in tail bone.
better u go n take a suggetion of orthopaedician regarding tail bone becoz some time that bone is dislocated in some cases that condition is called coccydynia. after proper diagnosis go n meet a physiotherapist for further treatment, in physiotherapy there r so many electrotherapeutic modalities r thr that will reduce ur pain , start exercise to strenthen ur back under the guidance of physio only.
definitely ur pain will cum down
