Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had a few miscarriages this year about a week after my last one I began having horrible cramps in my back left side. A week after that I had infrequent pink spotting which is now slightly more frequent and almost a light Maroon color. What does that mean?
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe back cramps . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like ligament strain , ruptured disks , muscle stain due to lifting of heavy object and injury occur to back muscles when your abdominal muscles are weak . The spots your mention in query may occur due to extra stress on back , allergic reaction or side effect of medicine . I would suggest you to use hard bed , apply hot compresses to back , take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain and take benadry twice a day . If condition doesn't get well then consult orthopedic surgeon for proper diagnosis . Doctor may order x-ray or CT scan . Doctor may prescribe muscle relaxant , physical therapy and particular stretching exercises .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
