Back and toe pain

Once or twice a month, I get an intense, burning 8/10 on the pain scale pain just to the right of my spine. The pain radiates down my right buttock and the back of my thigh. It usually lasts 2-3 days, then goes away. It hurts more when I move or bend over, and the only relief I get is sitting still. Even turning over in bed is excruciating. I just got over the last round, but this time it was different - I started getting sharp, shooting pains in 2 of my toes. These pains last 2-4 seconds and occur 5-10 times a day.

Each time I plan a doctor's appointment, the back pain goes away before I can actually be seen.

Help?

hi,
if the pain goes away it doesn't mean that you avoid your appointment with doctor. you must see your doctor. he may be take you through some investigation e.g X-Rays or MRI.
take care
