I have sometimes extreme back pain for about 20 years in my lower back. it was diagnosed as siaticca (forgive my spelling). I have taken Aleeve per the doctor recommend recommendation and it has helped. It has elevated in the last few years. I don't believe it is a disk problem because the pain is way too low, almost to my very low butt bone. it seems to be worse when I have gas or need to have a bowel movement because there is so much pressure, I don't have any major weight loss or loss of appetite, everything is fine. Can u give me some clue as to what I need to do?
