Has Anyone Have Back Problems From A Seizure
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I used to have seizures when I felt like disoriented jello if I walked I would swivel and bend my spine above my hips now I am having general back pain in the same area I know I am going to talk my sister said I should talk to my neurologist and also see a chiropractor but I refuse to take any prescription for my back pain because I don't want to be addicted to painkillers

Hello. Years ago I had severe sciatica pain. It's a swollen disk that pinches a nerve in your spine. The doctors infected KEMOPAPEAN into the swollen disk and it shrunk the disk and stopped the pain. Ask your doctor about shrinking the swollen disk.
Hang tough. Good luck!😉

Yes!! I fractured 3 vertebrae having a seizure. Unfortunately at the ER they blew off my complaints of back pain, so I didn't get treatment tlll about 3 months when I went to my doctor Tylenol/ibuprofen 4x daily and PT 3/week for 8 weeks.but...I still have pain when I sit or stand too long. And It hurts to wear a bra all day. (???)
