Well Accutane is known to effect the bones and spine! Many people have complained about lower back pain. I myself was 5'6 1/2 before I started accutane and I didn't notice till towards the end of my course, but I did shrink a 1inch and all my doctors agreed it was from accutane and on xray it showed my lower spine is slightly curved. So it is possible

What did the Chiro say???? Just so you know wether it was caused by accutane or not since you only been on it a week, it may make things worse. I would look into holistic methods, light therapy or laser therapy for acne. Not worth it!

I've been on accutane for a little over a month & never experienced any back pain til about two days ago.

I woke up with a sore back all over. It almost felt like I had been holding a house the entire day before! It was so sore!

I cracked it a number of times, tried to rest, layed on the floor to straighten it, sat on an angle, slouched, leaned, EVERYTHING! Nothing seemed to ease the pain apart from arching my back right in the middle section.

Sleeping that night was difficult but I felt fine the next day & even still today. I'm positive it's due to the medication, I've never experienced back pain like that before.

Just keep an eye on it & if pain persists, take it up with you gp or derm.
