Subject: back pains

hi all i have been suffering with a pain in my back on and off for few months it feels more like syatica (excuse spelling) as the pain runs dwn my back and in the top of my thigh. i was awake all night due to the pain nothing would ease it off. i have had 14 steriod shots over the past 3 yrs could this be the cause i was told that steriods can give back problems. does arthritus cause sciatica. when ever i mention bout back pain to my rhummy he goes down the line that it is probably due to pregnancy as i had my daughter 18months ago

I have had Sciatica [ not that long ago actually ] and I have OA / possible Inflammatory arthur. I think your Rhumie is over reaching when they say it is because of having your baby 18 months ago though !!

hi kylee, have you tried osteopathy? I used to get sciatica all the time and it worked brilliantly for me.

Hi, I think I also get sciatica in my hip. Some days its ok but then others I cant put any weight on my leg becasue of sharp shooting pains in my leg. Is there anything that can be done for it or is it a case of shutting up and putting up?
