Back Pain

How frustrating. I use a heating pad when that happens.

I am so sorry Marlina, I think that only a physiotherapist could really help.

@marlina You poor thing! I'm sorry about your back. I often have issues with my back. For me, I may put a heat pack on it, do stretches or lay flat on the floor for a little bit. Sometimes with something underneath my back to stretch it further.

@marlina I am so so sorry about the muscle in your lower back. Is there anything that will help you get over the soreness? I use ben gay and a heating pad when my lower back hurts.

I am sorry, I don't have a great advice for you as fortunately I don't have many back pain. Maybe it was better to go to a doctor.

i have struggled with back pain for years! I finally found the All-33 chair. it actually helps your back stay loose during the day!

I am so sorry Marlina about your back pain. I am thinking about those Chiro that I watched on YouTube - adjusting patients' backs.

Do you have any icy hot to use on your back.

Have you tried a nice hot shower letting the water hit you on that sore spot for a bit and then maybe follow it up with a heating pad? I swear by heat when my back bothers me.

I hope it's better by now.

I take Advil, hang on my chinning bar, and then do some heroin (Vicodin). I have chronic lower back pain. With muscle pulls, I think time is the best healer.

The only trick I know is a good chiropractor. I hope you feel better soon. Ice might help.

I hurt mine last week, not sure how. I use those pain patches and they really help. I get them at the Walmart pharmacy for about a $1.00 or so. Hope you feel better.

Rest, rest, rest. Try some warm heat.

Oh, ouch. I did a month of physical therapy. It does help. The stretches they gave me help IF (big if) I do them. They involve stretching, one knee pulled toward opposite arm for thirty seconds, I think. Same leg elevate, point and flex fifteen times. Everything done with abdominal muscle pulled in, but still breathing. I hope you feel better soon.

Ouch!!! Do you have a heating pad and some Ben Gay? That may help. A muscle relaxer pill would help too but most people don't have any of those. May have to wait it out and let it heal on its own.

I would use hot water bottle and patch from Salonpas.

Yes I lie on the floor with my legs up on the couch if that makes sense..some of the blood flow then goes into the spine and provides a bit of relieft I am sorry that happened..I know it is miserable Also I use my massager

One thing I do for periodic back pain is lay on a tennis ball. It was recommended to me by a massage therapist and it does help a lot. I use it when the back of my neck gets tight too. I do it in bed and move it to other locations that are tight when the first seems better. It could take several days before it helps totally.

I've heard something like this happen to people, but I don't know the solution. Are you better now?
