Pinched Nerves: More Common in the Back. Even though many people associate this condition with the neck, it's more common in the lower back. There's a shooting pain that travels to a specific part of the leg. The doctor and the patient can actually follow the pain pathway. If the nerves in the area of the neck are affected, then pain will shoot down the arm. Pinched nerves in the neck could also be the result of an impact or repeatedly bending the neck.

Orthostatic hypotension is a sudden drop in blood pressure that can occur with the first dose of Flomax or when changing doses of Flomax. Such a drop in blood pressure, although rare, may be associated with fainting, dizziness, or lightheadedness.
