Suggest Treatment For Lower Back Pain
My husband has has sever lower back pain ever since we have been together. He has had a lower spinal fusion and numerous test's done and every doctor has a different answer. He is only 30 and feels like 80 year old man. He is now having pain in his wrists, which sweel up, sholders and sometimes his legs and arms get the tingly sensation. Lately he has been getting extremly bad migraines. We have been to the hospital for chest pain's and there are still no answers. Before the doctors were just giving him scripts for pain killers and depression. He has stopped taking it all because it wasn't doing anything. We need help..

Hello,
I have studied your case with diligence.
As per your symptoms there is possibility of pain due to bad posture as your back is involved,.
If not relieved then possibility of polyarthritis needs to be considered
Rheumatoid arthritis may involve small joints and early morning stiffness in joints, do you have such complain?
Ankylosing spondylitis typically involve spine and hips with other large joint also. There is reduced chest function in this disease. Stiffness in spine is increased do you have such stiffness in spine?
When such patients come to our hospital I advise them blood test like RA factor, ACCP, ESR, complete blood count, HLA B27
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care
