Patient's question:
I had lower back pain in May of this year. In late August, I was diagnosed with this at Anhui Medical University. Now I am paralyzed from the waist down. The lower back pain prevents me from lying in bed, so I can only lie in a recliner.Doctor's answer:
The current condition is quite severe, mainly focusing on pain relief and improving quality of life. Pain from bone metastasis can be managed with some pain-relieving medications, but this depends on the specific condition and the use of pain medication. Initially, opioid-based medications are used, followed by morphine and pethidine. At the same time, traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be combined. Medicinal herbs like ginsenoside Rh2 can help control the worsening of the condition and improve the patient's quality of life.
