What Causes Lower Back Pain After The Lumbar Surgeries?
hello, I have had 5 lumbar surgeries the last surgery was in 2008, but now I have severe lower back pain which spreads around my rib cage, I also deal with chronic constipation, I am not on any narcotics for pain relief I do visit my doctor one a month for other health issues as well so I am just wondering where this pain the spreads to both sides of my ribcage.

HI
well come to HCM
This pain may not be due to the spine disease again but could be muscular spasm due to poor posture and this can be treated accordingly if this fails to respond then and then this can be brought to investigation, try to maintain the good posture and for the pain you can use any NSAID, take care.
