Hey.

May I ask what brings you in today (No matching questions found.)

She went to the clinic today (No matching questions found.)

What brings you into the clinic this morning

Well, I have a lot of pain in my lower back. It really hurts, and it doesn’t seem to be going away. It’s making it kind of hard to get things done, so I decided to come in and have it looked at.

Thanks for understanding.

May I ask when did this pain start (Clarified to When did the pain start?.)

It started three days ago, right when I first tweaked my back. (Clarified to when the pain started.)

Do you have any medical history of muscular skeletal system

Other than my back? I have diabetes and asthma.

What are you taking for diabetes

I don’t take medicine for it anymore.

What are you taking for your asthma

Question 04/15/20 4:47 PM MD

I have a Flovent daily inhaler and a Proventil rescue inhaler.

How often are you using your proventil

I haven’t used my rescue inhaler in months — not since I started the daily Flovent one.

That makes sense.

Can I ask where is the pain located

It hurts in my lower back and even, like, the top of my butt.

How long does it pain last

It’s pretty constant.

What does it feel like

It’s like. . . an ache.

Is there something that makes it worse

Well, I’ve been taking Advil for it. Otherwise the only thing that really helps is lying flat on my back.

How often are you taking Advil

I’ve been taking them every five or six hours, like it says on the bottle.

How many days have you been taking it (Clarified to For how many days have you been on pain pills?.)

I’ve been taking the Advil about three days, maybe a little less–since the night after I hurt myself. (Clarified to how many days I have been taking pain pills.)

Is there something that makes your back pain worse

It definitely feels worst when I’m sitting up. Moving around can make it hurt more, too.

Is there anything related with the back pain

Taking Advil has been helping a little. . . and it feels better when I lie flat on my back.

Does your back pain radiates anywhere

No, it isn’t spreading.

Question 04/15/20 4:50 PM MD

Are you able to walk okay

I can walk, but it does hurt a little.

Do you need to use a walker

I can walk, but it does hurt a little.

From 1 to 10 what is your pain scale (Clarified to Can you rate your current back pain level on a scale of 0 to 10?.)

Without medication, it depends on what position I’m in, but I’d say probably it averages about 5 out of 10. (Clarified to to rate my back pain on a scale.)

When you take the medication what is your pain scale

When the Advil’s just kicking in the pain goes down to a 2 or 3 out of 10, I’d say.

Are you having any joint pain

No, my joints feel fine.

Are you able to stand up

It actually feels a little better when I’m standing than when I’m sitting.

Have you had history of muscle soreness before

Sore muscles aren’t usually a problem for me, but I think it’s this muscle in my back that is causing me so much pain. [AUDIO COMING SOON]

May I ask what do you do at work

Well, since being promoted to supervisor, I’ve been in charge of scheduling other employees, taking inventory, and placing orders for supplies. I’m still on the floor a lot though, dealing with customers and that sort of thing. It’s mostly a lot of standing and walking around.

Have you had any muscle injury

Well, I guess it’s the muscle in my back that’s hurting.

Has this ever happened before (No matching questions found.)

Did you have this problem before

No, nothing like this has ever happened to me. . . my back is usually totally fine.
