Back Pain on right side
I have been experiencing back pain only on the right side from last 2 years. It is continuous which restricts deep breathing. I can feel the pain when I am sitting, walking and mostly when I'm sleeping. I was diagnosed with tuberculosis at the same from which I recovered within 12 months, but the pain still persists. I have done CT Scan, MRI Spine and CT IVP, but the results are normal. Orthopedic and Urologist conclude that there is no issue. I also visited Physiotherapist and followed the exercises for at least a month, but no improvement. No doctor is able to identify the root cause of this issue. They only say that it is a muscular pain and it is only in your brain, ignore it. I have spent huge amount of money in visiting different doctors and for various tests, hence, I am fearing to believe any other doctor now, maybe they will also charge money and then say that it is muscular pain only. I had raised a similar query few months ago but no help.(Klywin)

If the scans show no abnormality then there may be no obvious structural issue. However there may be issue with scar tissue from the tuberculosis or muscle weakness. If your posture has altered over the last few years then that may be contributing to the problems. Without a full clinical examination and detailed look at the scans it is difficult to give you more advice. As I said if there is nothing on the scans then it is most likely related to incorrect posture and muscle weakness. Hope this helps. Dr Vinu Raj Consultant Spine Surgeon MBBS MRCS FRCS(Trauma&Orth)
