Expert: Dr. Peter Carr - 10/19/2009
Question
I am 40 years old and i had a fusion of my L4 and L5 after fracturing my facet joint 11 years ago and now i am starting to have a lot of pain in my back again and pain going down my legs. I'm on diclofenac, tramadol, gabapentin and paracetamol. Have you any idea why i am starting to have the pain again
Answer
Paul;
We need more information. Where is it specifically going down your legs? Is it positional (Does it hurt with certain motions) With a fusion, there is a lot of stress placed on the segment above. Please follow up with me.
