Should I Be Concerned About Pain In The Right Buttock Despite Taking Prednisone And Muscle Relaxants For Lower Back Pain?
I had lower back pain for about a week and a half. Went to ER twice. Took Prednisone, muscle relaxants. That has now subsided, but now have pain in the right buttock, and at times I can see and feel like a nerve twitching in my thigh. Should I be concerned?

Hi,
That's a clear sign of radiating pain from spine. Please don't take steroid for long. Consult nearby orthopedic / spine surgeon for further management.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
