What causes lower back pain with normal X-ray report?
Patient: Hi, I am a lady with 35 years of age and 56 kg weight. I am suffering from lower back pain since last 3 - 4 days. Upon going to a doctor, he suggested me to get a L S x- ray. He says that x - ray is normal but he doubts that it is slip disc problem and wants me to do an MRI. I do not have any history of BP or diabetes. Please advice. Doctor: Hi,Please proceed to MRI, and confirm the diagnosis. In few conditions X-ray might look normal, but an MRI can give you the right diagnosis. So, it is advised to get it done.Thanks.
