How to get relief from lower back pain which is getting worse after two c-section delivery?
Patient: Hi there, I've had ongoing lower back pain since the birth of my first child (via emerg. C-section) 2 years, it continued throughout my 2nd pregnancy. Again I had an emerg. C-section with my 2nd child, which was 3 months ago. Pain unfortunately getting worse & am now getting tingling/numbness/pain in both my heels. Have seen an osteopath for last few months but has not given me any relief.Thanks Doctor: Hi there. Your symptoms correlate to disease called Prolapsed Intervertebral Disc...... most probably at the L5-S1 level. Pressure on the nerve is causing the tingling sensation. Kindly get an immediate Xray and MRI of the lumbosacral spine region done. Get it evaluated by an orthopedician.In the meantime follow this protocol :1.  Bed rest.....as much as possible2. Avoid bending forward and avoid lifting heavy objects3. Local heat massage and analgesic gel application4. Painkiller and muscle relaxant medication.5. Pregablin to suppress the tingling srnsationsI hope my advice has helpedGood luck
