What causes severe pain in the lower back?
Patient: Hi i have had this pain for a long time now. well ever since i've had my son and it's in the lower part of my back. I know i suffer from a weak back since having him, but everytime i want to poo i suffer from pain in my lower back and its a wierd sensation. Could you tell me of any solutions. thanks Doctor: Low back pain is a very common ailment in females and the cause usually is calcium and vitamine deficiency. Are you taking these supplements? If not start on calcium along with vit D3 and also multivitamin supplements. Also add an antioxidant to it. Also get your general pathology work up done to rule out anaemia and diabetes. If the pain persists even one month after this, then get your back examined by an orthopaedician after doing a xray.
