Do you have back pain after having an epidural?

Question

So I'm 4 months pp and I have terrible back pain along my lower spine. I've had it ever since having my baby boy and I heard a lot of women have back pain after having an epidural. If you do have this did it ever go away?

Answer

I had back pain for an entire year after the epidural. Every so often my lower back is sensitive to touch still and it’s been over 8 years.

Answer

I'm four weeks postpartum and didn't have any back pain until three days ago. Now it's nonstop and I can't sleep well at night. However, my left hip has been numb since the day I gave birth with so signs of improvement

Answer

4 months pp tomorrow and never had backpain until after my 2 epidurals. I hear it goes away with time. I hope thats true because it's the worst pain I've ever had.

Answer

Mine was sore for a few days where the needle was inserted but that's it. No pain or anything like that.

Answer

Answer

It’s pretty common unfortunately. It usually goes away with time.

I have scoliosis and the whole pregnancy threw my back into a whole mess.. I got epidural too but the chiropractor I was seeing said that sometimes our spines curve to carry the weight and then take awhile to get back

Answer

I had terrible back pain for 5 months, it only recently got better, idk if it was from the epidural though
