Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had 4 wisdom teeth removed on Friday. Shortly thereafter, the same day, I had excruciating pain in my lower back. I went to the ER and they said I did not have a kidney stone and that it was either muscular or a disc? But it happened like right after I woke up from anesthesia. Any thoughts about this? Does anyone else get similar symptoms?
Hi,Welcome to healthcare magic.After going through your query I think You are suffering from acute backache after your widome teeth removal.Treatment of it is rest and analgesics . Diclofenac three times a day after meals is effective. Sometimes strong analgesic(such as ultracet three times a day after meals) is required. OMEPRAZOLE before meals prevent acidity caused by analgesics . You can discuss with your treating Doctor .There are two possibility ,one is simple muscle pain,second is disc prolapse.I consider it to be muscular as this occur after your four wisdom teeth removal ,prolonged laying down on dental chair may have provoked it. To further investigate MRI of the region is advised. I think your query query answered.Welcome to any follow up query.
