I have lumps on both sides of my spine . it is ruining my quality of life!!!!!! could this be a episacral lipoma?? however l have had a m.r.I done...and have spondylolthesis!!! I don t think that is what is causing my pain.??!!! I can touch my toes &bend backwards without any pain. no leg or foot pain. no trouble using the bathroom either. I think it s a back mouse! lol plz help thanks, tammey Doctor: Hello, Thanks for your query.These cold be related to degenerative disc and spondolytis.I will advise you to do to do x ray spine and MRI spine.You may need muscle relaxant with analgesic,and neurotropic medicine.lumbar corset and hot fomentation will give faster relief.Physiotherapy like USG and SWD will give quick relief.Spine exercises done regularly will prevent reccurance of such episodes.I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.Take care
