Lower Back Pain In Morning, Getting Relief After Bowel Movements. Should I Meet A Doctor?
Hi doctor, I've been experiencing lower back pain in a morning when I get out of bed. I have always had back problems, I think due to the ligaments in the back of my leg tightening after exercise, and I stretch to relieve. However this seems different, relief seems to come after emptying my bowel of gas / bowel movement. Do you think merits going to see my doctor? Thank you. David (Age 40).

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Desire of defecation develops mild pain in intestine ( abdomen i.e. back) & this is a natural process.
In my opinion this is not due to any disease so no consultation.
If pain is more in back then you should consult an orthopaedician and get his opinion for lumbo-sacral region ( back).
Good luck.
