See a Doctor |
|
| |
Since most back and neck pain is due to a rapidly reversible disorder, there usually is no urgency to see a doctor. However, occasionally it is due to a more serious problem and needs to be evaluated more promptly by a physician.
Here is a list of symptoms that warrant contacting your physician:
- A change in bowel or urinary function associated with the onset or progress of your back pain.
- Constant (every minute) severe pain below your knee or elbow with numbness or pins and needles in your foot or toes.
- A recent severe accident started your pain.
- You are also feeling generally unwell, including fever, fatigue, or weight loss.
- You have a history of cancer.
When you call for your appointment, tell the office staff which of these items apply to you.
