I had a baby 9 months ago. For the past 4 months I've been having back pain which ha seen increasing in severity. I chalked it up as carrying a baby / weak back muscles. A couple months back, I noticed a lump on my right lower back ( half way between spine and putter hip). This lump is approx 1".
I've been to chiro, acupuncture, massage therapist ... Nothing is helping. Unfortunately the pain keeps getting worse. Advil isn't doing anything to ease the pain, nor is heat or ice. Today it is almost unbearable and can now be felt in front of hip flexor and down right left (sciatic feel). I have an appt at my doctor Thursday, but am hoping for some advice / idea of what I'm dealing with. Thx!
Hello, Krissy78. Did you ever find out what the bump was that you was posting about? I am wondering if you had some type of muscle knot or swelling that was pinching your sciatic nerve. What did the doctor do for you and was it a surgical intervention or did he/she just give you an anti-inflammatory for it? The chiropractor didn't have any idea what it was? I hope that the treatment you received for it helped you and that you are getting around pain-free!
Has anyone else had this type of thing happen to them? What was it and what did you do about it?
