I'm 22 years old and gave birth to my son a year ago. I received an epidural and when it was being administered I felt a sharp pain go down my spine into my legs. I didn't think much of it at the time, but I continued to have this pain for about 6 months after I had him, along with a numbness in my left shoulder blade and left hand. It went away until about a month ago when I started getting the same pains. Yesterday it happened again, only it didn't stop and radiated throughout my lower back and into my hips. The pain is constant as well as the numbness. I don't have insurance, but will find a way to go to a doctor because I can't deal with this pain. No over the counter meds are helping and nothing I do helps. Please help me. Thank you.
