Back pain

Having a lot of back pain lately on my right side. Anybody experiencing this? I am Entyvio going to Gastro Doc to discuss going back on Humira…

  1. Oh, no! I'm so sorry to hear about your back pain. Personally, I've never been prescribed Entyvio, so I can't offer experience with it. I do think you're following the right path by talking to your gastroenterologist. Each person's body responds differently to prescription medicines. I do hope your doctor is able to find the right prescription that offers UC relief without any major side effects. Until you return to the doctor, have you tried a heating pad or topical capsaicin patches (like Salonpas) for the back pain? Please stay in touch and let us know how you're doing. I do hope you are experiencing a pain-free day. Hugs! --Traci (UC-IBD Team Member)

    1. I appreciate your response but from your statement I don’t you know what you are talking about? I have Arthritis in my lower back and joints due to Crohn’s and Salopas are not going to help that. I was looking for a response from someone who is currently using Biologics….

      1. Sorry you are having pain. Definitely your gastro know about it. Perhaps changing meds will be the best. How are you managing the pain. Do you find it comes after eating? -Elizabeth (team member)
