I Have No Health Insurance And In Desperate Need Of Pain Medicine, Where Would I Be Able To Go?

I have hurt my back causing piriformis syndrome (muscle below the gluteus maximus), pain in the lliotibial band (muscle that runs along the hip down the leg) and sciatica pain. I have been taking 5/ 200mg motrin every 3 to 4 hours for nearly a week now. Sometimes it just disappears, but since yesterday morning, the pain has not subsided. I can barely walk on this leg and get in the car to drive to the doctor. I am aware of this pain on my right side since 1994 from exercise over usage, but this pain is relentless.

Can I Still Be Able To Swim After Scoliosis Surgery?

How long does it take for the wound to recover fully and heal itself to the extent that water will not seep into my back when i swim or do water activities(lol),does it feel painful when swimming in the water with that wound/scar on?

Will Meps Be Able To Tell If I Have Very Mild Scoliosis?

I had x-rays done after a car accident about a year ago and the dr said I had very mild scoliosis but that it wouldn’t affect me because I was already done growing and I had never noticed problems before. I questioned my family dr and my chiropractor what they thought and they said they couldn’t tell. Will MEPS notice? If they do, will they keep me from joining?
