Does anyone have experience with spinal fusion/Harrington rod?
I had Scoliosis at age 11 which required surgery. Then had a Harrington rod surgically fused to my spine. All was well up until 10 years ago. Recently, I was transferring furniture into a vehicle when I felt something "snap" in my back ; have been in constant pain ever since. Anyone have experience with treatment/therapies for Acute back pain with Scoliosis?

Have you seen an orthopedic spine specialist for X-ray and MRI of soft tissues to see what is going on in your spine and with your hardware? Have you seen someone for pain management?

I agree with @dlydailyhope by having an orthopedic spine and see what’s going on. A year ago, my pain from my read-ends down to the bottom of my feet. And yeas, some of that feeling is gone. Well, thankfully, my doctor “fixed” of my bottom-back within my bone. Well, after that, the next day, I was within my hospital and all pain was gone. So after now - a year ago - the loss of feelings from my rear-ends - that feeling is great

leilab1, imaging is the first step. Sooner would be better than later. You may have a fracture.
What happened ten years ago?
