Chronic Low Back Pain
I have been experiencing lower back pain for approximately 6 years now. I was diagnosed with sciatica about 4 years ago. 2 days ago, I slipped on the front porch steps at my wife's relatives house and fell around 3 feet to the ground. I went to my PCP and he referred me to a pain management specialist, as nothing I do, including rotating heat and ice and resting, seems to be decreasing my pain at all. I do not have insurance at this time. Are there any PM Spec. that help low income families?
