When Should I See a Doctor About Back Pain?

If back pain limits your daily activities, persists for more than a few weeks, or is accompanied by other symptoms like numbness or tingling in your limbs, it's time to consult a specialist. Early intervention can prevent conditions from worsening and pave the way for effective treatment.

Back pain can manifest in various ways and may indicate underlying issues that require medical attention. Understanding the symptoms associated with back pain can help you determine when it's time to see a specialist. Contact a specialist if you're experiencing numbness, tingling, or a constant or intermittent ache along the spine, from the base of the neck to the tailbone, radiating or sharp pain.

What Can Cause Back Pain?

Back pain can arise from various conditions, including, but not limited to:

  • Herniated Discs: When the cushion between spinal vertebrae protrudes, it can press on nerves.
  • Osteoporosis: A condition that weakens bones, making them more susceptible to fractures.
  • Scoliosis: A curvature of the spine that can lead to discomfort and mobility issues.
  • Facet Joint Syndrome: Degeneration of the joints between the spinal bones.
  • Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal, which can compress the spinal cord and nerves.

My most recent appointment with him went wonderful! He listened to my concerns and scheduled injections for me for my SI joints, scheduled an MRI of my back, and upped my gabepentin which the insurance company had lowered because they didn’t want to pay for 3 times a day. In just 1 day back on 3 doses my back pain is so much milder! Thank you so much Dr. Lockstadt!!!
