Suggest Remedy For Gas And Lower Back Pain

I have been having stomach issues, huge gas and causes my intestines--or something to move around a lot. Today I felt very sluggish--have a fever of just around 101 and my lower back bothers me. I have an appointment with my Dr. at 8:00AM tomorrow morning. I just want to be certain this condition does not worsten or cause me to have other issues.

Hello,

Gastric irritation is one of very common complaints patients come to my clinic with. The following are my recommendations:
1) Avoid spicy and fatty food
2) Avoid lying down immediately after eating
3) Maintain upright posture for at least 1 hour after eating
4) Take tab. Pantoprazole 40 mg daily before food
5) For acute gastric irritation OMEZ insta 1 sachet in one glass of water. That will give a rapid relief.

There are many causes of fever and back pain. Lumbar spondylosis is one of the important causes of back pain and is treated as follows:
1) Complete bed rest when the pain is severe
2) NSAID like Ibuprofen (but it may cause gastric irritation so take along with Pantop 40)
3) If the pain is severe, epidural steroid injection is recommended

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pallavi M., Anesthesiologist
