Lower back pain that has been going on for over a year has gotten much worse to where I can not stand for short periods of time I can on longer take long or short walks and I cannot lay on my back. I have not been able to go back to work cause I can no lo her do my job. When I try to move around it feels as if my spine is swelling and it keeps me in the bed most of the time. The pain has also now spread to my knee and two of my fingers. I am really suffering with this and I've tried hot and cold packs, over the counter medicine and it does not work. I had surgery last year to remove part of my kidney due to cancer and the meds they gave me for pain only partially helped for an hour or two and the pain was right back. The pain has also now spread to my knee and two of my fingers. My fingers ha e felt swollen for three weeks now and it hurts to bend them in anyway even to hold a pen to write or use my phone causes pain and what feels like swelling. I need help.
