    Back Pain- Spinal Stenosis

    Anyone have back pain all the time and has yours been tested ?? Mine is aching so badly I wanna pull my spine out my rear and shove a new spine up in there . I don't take meds for it and I did try therapy but they made it worse it was in home health care and they didn't even look at my ct scans.
    Help me fight this some way please , thanks.

    Sorry to hear that. Have you told a doctor about the swelling? What could be causing that?

    I haven't been to a doctor yet I suffer from Agoraphobia it could be swelling but I did have a ct scan done back in 2012 it showed back then the narrowing of the spine I also have hurt my back years ago at work and was in tractions for 6 weeks and I was born with scoliosis my back just isn't so great a doctor told me around 20 years ago my spine looked like an old country curvy road . I do need to lose weight I do need a lot done to my head my back my stomach my spine etc... Thanks for the replies God Bless you all.

    Had terrible back pain. Took an MRI to find the issue. Maybe you could get one of those?

    I have alot of back pain, though I'm able to function, but I'm not flexible or good at bending or sitting down or standing up. If I move too sharply the lower part of my spine will cause the worse pain in the world. But even sneezing or standing on tip toes could put my back out.
