What Are The Effects Of Lumbar Puncture?

My 17 yr old daughter had a lumbar puncture performed over a year ago. The doctor that performed procedure was a resident doctor ( I think that s what you call it when they are first starting out) and she tried for along time unsuccessfully to complete procedure before the doctor had to step in and finish procedure. Every since the day she left the hospital she has experienced severe back pain. She has been told that she has deteriorating disk, arthritis and two cysts (all in the same exact area that she had the lb). She had been threw extensive physical therapy, injections and several medications. Today she was referred to more physical therapy and pain management doctor. Is there any possibility that the lb lead to any of these problems or severe pain that she has had since she was released from hospital. It has changed her entire life and attitude and we are desperate for resolution
