I try to talk women out of epidurals because every woman I know who ever had one during delivery was complaining about back pain ten, twenty and thirty years later.

Back pain happens for a number of reasons. I had an epidural once, but I'm pretty certain the back pain is from osteoarthritis exacerbated by scoliosis. The only way to control the pain is to exercise.

The women I know (wife, mother, aunts, coworkers) all complain about specific pain at the point of the injection.
