I am going to have a lumbar disectomy next week. Any knowledge and experience about this would be appreciated

I have had low back pain for six months with sciatica down my left leg. They are finally willing to perform surgery. I would just like to know what to expect in terms of pain, recovery, things I can do to make life a little easier, etc. Thank you so much in advance!

What would cause a case of chronic back pain?

My fiance’ has a pain in her lower back almost everyday. When i massage it i notice that her muscles are almost rock hard/knotted until i massage them. Her doctor has prescribed her with meloxicam which is an arthritis medicine, the medicine does not help at all any other suggestions, besides icy hot, or ibuprofen/pain meds or some sort of diagnosis?

How bad would it be to go snowboarding with a herniated disc?

So I have a herniated disc in my back and my friends are all going snowboarding and I really want to go! I know I am going to fall and stuff, but how bad could that screw up my back? I played tackle football with my sorority a few months ago and it didn’t hurt my back too badly (I didnt know it was herniated then and I’ve had it since september) Do you think my choice in going snowboarding is a bad idea? thanks!

What medication would work best for back pain from standing for 6 hours?

I have flat feet, which results in back/foot/leg pain and fatigue after standing still for long periods of time. I do have orthotic inserts for my shoes, but that doesn’t stop the pain.
What kind of medication could I talk to my doctor about regarding such an issue? Something that can relieve or possibly numb the pain but keep me coherent during extended periods of standing still? (like orthodox church services for example, which can last as long as 6 hours during the week of easter)

What area of the back would you suffer with pain in the case of an ectopic pregnancy?

My period arrived 6 days late and when it did, I had a normal flow for the first day only and then brown spotting for a week after. I have now suffered from menstrual-like cramps for 3 weeks and woke up today with bad back pain that hurts on my right side, roughly waist height. I have had urine and blood tests which came back negative. In the case of an ectopic pregnancy, would my back pain be lower? Thank you for any help you can offer!
