Weird pain in my spine and lungs?!


Question: Weird pain in my spine and lungs!?
My girlfriend, her Mom, Dad and I went grocery shopping at about 7pm Friday (its 2:15am Saturday now) When we got back I carried about 10-15 bags of groceries in with one hand!. Upon setting the groceries down I felt a pain in the upper part of my spine and thought nothing of it!. My girlfriend and I went in her room and laid down to watch a movie, I kept feeling the pain a little bit with certain movements I would make so I took 800mg of Ibuprofen!. After-wards we went downstairs to eat dinner and I felt the pain throughout dinner!. We went back upstairs and finished our movie!. I went to go put another movie in and started getting the pains really bad so I decided to lay face down on the floor and try to keep my spine straight, it didn't help much!. I also got a pain in my lungs twice (I'm not sure if the incidents are related and I'm a smoker of 7 years - marijuana and cigarettes) Anyways, the pain in my spine occurs with certain arm and neck movements (mainly when I look down like I'm reading a book) and it extends from the base of my neck to the bottom of my shoulder blades, not any lower at all!. The pain in my lungs was a sharp pain, a pain I've felt before because of inflammation of my lungs, the weird thing is I can take deep breathes and there's no lung pain or feeling what-so-ever!. When I did get the lung pain it was accompanied by the spine pain!. I just took 600mg of Ibuprofen and some Tylenol via my girlfriend's Mom's recommendation!. I also had my girlfriend apply Mineral Ice (Icey Hot) to the area on my spine that hurts!. Should I go to the hospital asap or would tomorrow be okay!? If I do wait until tomorrow and the pain is gone, should I go anyways!? Could this be pain from straining a muscle (I highly doubt it's a muscle, it definitely feels like the bone is aching) or pulling something in my back!? Please, no hypocondriacts!. I don't need any more worry!. I want serious, professional suggestions and opinions please!. Thank you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i would suggest going to the hospital!. it sounds like your in a lot of pain right now and they can take xrays to see if you really hurt yourself or not!. they can also tell you what is going on and what you can do to take care of yourself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you more than likely just strained a ligament in your back neck area give it a week or so to heal

try heat muscle rubs/spraysWww@Answer-Health@Com
