It could be both. Something to remember is that the Orthopedic (spinal) doctor sticks to his realm. I had 4 opinions by the time I was finished. but like I said you should also have the read to show us. Don't expect a straight answer. Expect the truth of what the doctor can offer. Mine was super honest "I might not be able to heal all of your pain because the nerves have been crushed for so long" But he gave me my life back. You should go to a pain mgt doctor who works WITH your orthopedist. So you can hold them accountable. You can go to an EMT (nerve) specialist and they will do tests and tell you if the nerves exiting your back are the cause. That can give you the insight you are lacking. Doing diagnostic procedures like epidurals and corticosteroid injections in your spine/facet joints will also verify where the pain is coming from.
