firefighter49 · 07-13-2013, 08:40 AM

hello- I've been having lower back pain and pain above my left hip and under rib cage. Had X-rays taken and are ok. Dr. put me on phy-therapy with no relief. Going in next week for an MRI. The pain is worse when i strech from side to side and walking alot. Been going on for 4 months now and no relief!! and help would be great.....

Did the pain start after some sort of injury?
Or out of the blue with no clear cause?

Post your MRI report when you get it.

I guess if PT isn't helping at all I would think about stopping it , or try a different place /PT person or maybe a good chiropractor.
But I would keep going to a place that is not making you feel better.
Sometimes another person has better skills or techniques and will be helpful.

A good chiro might help if MRI shows OK. Personally I started seeing 1 last due to low back pain and after 3 visits I feel a lot better. Still a ways to go but it really is helping
