What Causes Severe Pain In The Lower Back?
Hi there Dr. Rynne. I am a 55 y.o. Female martial artist. For 3 weeks I have had intermittent very sore lower lright back pain. I believe it is my discs. I have taken 2 7.5 Melaxicam to relieve my pain, it hasn t helped. Could I take any Motrin now? I am a pain of 7. Never have any issues, not on any meds daily. Just need a little more relief. Oh I also took one Tylenol.
