Suggest Treatment For Severe Lower Back Pain
My wife has had severe lower back pain for a couple of days. I am surmising a disk out of place. This morning , in great pain, she fainted and her jaw locked. I keep throwing water on her face, until she came to, probably 30 seconds. What could be the problem? Thanks, Robert.
