Answers:
I have taken Skelaxin for my severe back pain as well and received the same results of nothing! Tell your doctor it is not working and try something else. I too have symptoms of sciatica in my legs due to a fractured vertebrea and I am looking into what else I can do for the pain. I have tried ice pack and hot pack, that seems to help the achy feeling in the legs, maybe try that in the mean time. Good luck!Health Question & Answer
