Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am female, 26, 4'10" and a single mom working two jobs. I hurt my back today and the doctors offices are closed for the weekend. I have work tomorrow and it hurts so badly I can barely walk or bend over. If I miss work without a doctors note, I will get fired. But I cannot do my job this way. I have had 5 surgeries in my lower torso area and I'm afraid I may have hurt something from those areas. Should I go to the ER or would I just be bothering them?
