I'm 38 weeks pregnant, and have horrible lower back pain. It shoots from my lower back, into my butt, into my legs. It's a lot worse on my left side than the right. But, it's getting so bad that my legs are giving out on me, and the pain takes my breath away sometimes. Turning over in bed and getting out of bed is excruciating. I used to be able to enjoy a bath, but now it's too painful to get in and out. Getting in and out of the car is terrible, getting off the couch, pretty much everything. I have a doctor's appointment in the morning, but last week he told me to have my boyfriend stretch out my hamstring by lifting my leg up and out, but lifting it up makes me shriek in pain. Is there anything I can do so I can get some relief?
Anything to do about horrible back pain?
