Back Pain After Epidural?
Posted: 11-26-07 11:11am

For the past 24 months I have suffered from lower back pain accompanied by numbness and tingling sensations.

During pregnancy 2 years ago I had an epidural. I am beginning to think they are both related.

Has anyone else suffered back pain after an epidural? If so, what were your symptoms (Or know of anyone else)

Thank you

I'd like to help since I've had several epidural injections for lower back pain. However, I've had pain return after the epidurals because they did not work, but I'm not sure about pain over two years after it. I would check with a back specialist or osteopathy doctor to classify the pain you are feeling. It might be disc problems or nerve damage of some type. Get it checked out!

I've had 3 epidural but no continuing symptoms like the ones you describe. Perhaps these lower back apins are actually caused by something else. Where exactly is the pain located?
