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?
