How To Cure A Mass On The Lower Back & Severe Back Pain?
I had an MRI test done just this past Friday, the doctor's assistant called and told me that they will need to do another MRI with contrast this Monday. They found a mass on my lower back. I have had severe lower back pain for the last two weeks. I'm scared and don't know what to think. Thank you.

A mass is a very vague word, just like the word "lesion." Luckily many masses are benign cysts and other types of tissue, so don't assume the worst before you undergo the MRI with contrast.
