Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you with thanks for a consult! I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns according to the latest medical guidelines. Your back pain is due to the degenerative processes of the spine and the disc herniation. These issues heap up with passage of time and present with debilitating symptoms like you are having. I preferably suggest you to consult an Orthopedist for the same. He will do a thorough physical examination and will go for some diagnostic tests that will include your spinal MRI to see the structures of the spine. He is the personnel trained for treating such issues with success. Until you get an appointment for that, you may get relief from Fioricet by mouth. Apply Bengay Ultrastretch Gel on the area and massage it gently. ThermaCare HeatWraps are also great option for you to get better soon . It will give you a soothing effect. Avoid heavy weight lifting, excessive standing and strenuous work. Rest is needed. You definitely need to check for your fasting blood sugar levels and HbA1c levels. It is necessary to screen you for diabetes as you have been having polydipsia. Hope I answered all of your questions.
