Hello, I'm a 34 year old male from Boston.
I have had back problems on and off for
years now. Some may be inherited from my
father, and some may be from a nasty fall
I took as a teenager. However, whatever
this problems is seems to be getting
worse. I get pain, tingling, and some
numbness in my lower back, left hip, and
si joint area. I've gone to PT, taken all
kinds of meds, been to the chiropractor so
many times it's insane, and had x-rays,
and an mri too. Still, nobody can tell me
what's causing the problem. The biggest
problem I have is when I get a lateral
trunk shift. My spine and hips shift to
the right, and I look like some kind of
side show freak. When this happens all my
muscles in my back lock up like a vice,
and I basically can't get out of bed. I
think it all revolves around inflammation
in my si joint area, but am still not
sure. Has anyone else out there ever heard
of this happening?? Please help!! Thanks.
