I'm 14 years old, and I have back pain every day. Is this a problem?!


Question: I have backpain daily, and I take Ibuprofen for it each morning. Is this bad? Should i get medical attention? Is it okay to take Ibuprofen daily?

The only source of this pain that i can think of is that 6 months ago i was playing soccer and slipped in the mud. I landed on my butt and got the wind knocked out of me.

Daily back pain at your age is not normal. You need to see your Dr. You could have dislocated something, injured your discs,injured a bone in your tailbone, or broken something. You need x-rays. back pain can also indicate a kidney problem. Ibuprofen is a good drug but should not be used everyday when you don't know the cause of your pain. Please make an appt. and tell the Dr. everything you just told us here. GL

It's most likely growing pains I get them all the time in my back I'm also 14 but if it gets worse and unbearable you should go see a doctor. I do gymnastics I injured my back from fallling so the soccer incident might of be the source of the problem but I suspect if the ibuphroen helps the issue it's just growing pains. You could also consult a website called webmd. Hope you figure out your problem!!!

Your back pain could very well be related to your injury 6 mo. ago. Or it could be related to a growth spurt. Maybe your spine is growing crooked. Either way, you really should go to the doctor and get some x-rays taken. It is also not good to be taking Ibuprofen all the time like you are.

You need to see your doctor to rule out other things.

like go to the doctor
