just wondering if you have ever actually had an MRI just to see what may be lurking within your spinal column area or even the cord level? even obtaining a plain old x ray if nothing has EVER really been looked at there, may show some level of disc bulge or even a herniation? the thing here is with one sided back pain, it can usually be kind of tracked back within that spinal area to a bone spur on that particular side, or even an all out hernation that is more lateral(to the side) than centrally located? finding out just what is actually gnerating this pain would really be the best possible way to try and treat it more appropriately,thats all.
just where exactly in your back is this pain located? what actual symptoms have you been displaying besides the pain you have(just what does that pain 'feel" like when it flares up?)? have you ever actually tried the anti inflammatories like advil, motrin or aleeve just to see how well that real pain actually responds to it? it could be a good choice. you can also switch off between the tylenol based and the anti inflammatories too. it may work even better than just only tylenol.
but i would really try and start looking for the actual real generator of this before something worse occurs? most spinal issues just are very highly progressive in nature and tend to get much worse over time. thats kind of why it really needs to be found earlier if possible. more conservative types of treatments can simply be tried when things are smaller that just cannot really be done well when a particular problem just goes beyond a certain boundry. i would just make an appt with your primary at this point to get this area really thoroughly evaled and looked into with a deeper scan. trust me when i say that no one truely knows just what is actually going on within their own body til you simply obtain a much more in depth look into it with sme type of real inner scan that shows it. i personally have had some really crazy things just show up as little 'incidental findings" when having scans for other issues. just finding the true source here would help you tons in managing the pain and doing any types of real helpful treatments too. just some helpful advice from someone who has been down this road wayy too many times. i do hope things are okay, but you just really NEED to know that too. please keep us posted, FB
