Relieve Back Pain

Popular Remedies for Back Pain Relief

Anyone who has had discectomy, or ruptured disc w/ sciatic damage…?

I have been having alot of trouble with going to the bathroom (2). I don’t know how to explain it, its not incontenence because, i don’t have accidents. Its just that I can’t feel when it is there to go. There is never any pressure, or just the normal “knowing you have to go” feeling. I haven’t been regular in years since I started pain meds, but this is a fairly new issue. My surgery was almost 2 yrs ago.
I did start taking Methadone about 5mos ago, for pain, would that have anything to do with it? I asked my pain doc about it and he just looked at me, obviously didn’t know what to say.
HELP please.
I am not constipated, this is a lack of sensation.

One of the first things they did when I went to the ER with loss of bowel control was a rectal exam to check for sensation there. (TMI part: They put on a glove, KY, then press around in there and ask if you can feel it.) I was able to feel sensation there, but had the incontinence. (Pooped all over the doc’s hand, it was hilarious at the time )

Loss of sensation is usually (when they know disks are involved) cauda equina syndrome. The bowel/bladder control nerves are around S2/3/4 but the nerve ROOT is @ L4/L5. As people’s anatomies vary slightly damage in that general area can cause problems. ~Usually~ you have what they call ’saddle area’ numbness (the parts that would touch a saddle were you sitting on one) with cauda equina, but not necessarily. For me they’re calling it cauda equina, but I only have the incontinence (only?!?!) but not loss of sensation. It’s serious to have a change like that. I don’t think methadone would do that. Better check w/your doc!

Good luck.
