I have been experiencing excruciating pain in the lower back, right side of head. Never really had a history of migraines before...but do have a history of being diagnosed with absence seizures as a child. Don t know if its related but would like to know what is causing my head to hurt so much
HIF you have localized back pain with-no neurological symptoms like numbness, paresthesia, weakness in limbs etc., my advice is: - intensive physical therapy initially under supervision of a physiotherapist and then at home.- avoid forward bending, lifting heavy weights etc-take an analgesic like diclofenac or something which suits your body for 5-7 days-take muscle relaxant for same time as analgesic to relieve muscle spasm-ice packs at the site of pain, muscle spasm-local analgesic spray can be used, but no massage is required to be let me know in a week time how you are feeling. I will actually ask you to get x-ray of involved region of spine (app & lateral)and send reports across to me so that I can advise further in a better manner. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance
