Suggest Treatment For Back Pain In Patients With Spinal Stenosis
I have sharp intermittent pain on bottom of heel on right foot. it is not brought on by anything, as it first started last night whille sleeping. There is no warning of the onset of the pain and it lasts for varying lengths of time, a sharp pain that leaves in seconds or a sharp pain that may last 30 to 60 seconds. I have been diagnosed for last 4 years with spinal stenosis, but that has always affected lower back and buttocks with pain that radiates down back of both legs from buttocks to above the knee. Just started this new very sharp pain.
