It s always on off aching but now 7 years later it s really hurting again and I can t sit for longer than 40 mins without it playing up and any time I walk it s painful what could it be? :) thanks
Its possible that you have an injury to one of the nerves arising out of the spine. If the pain is very severe imaging the spine may give us a lead in diagnosing the problem.
