What is causing this pain and pressure?!
Question: I began feeling some achy pain in my mid to lower back about 2-3 weeks ago. I saw a chiropractor for it 3 times but that only seemed to help for a day or too. Now for the past week the pain has spread to my hip/pelvis region, mostly to the back and i am also experiencing a lot of pressure. It almost feels like something is pushing my hips apart. I have had light bleeding on and off the past few days even though i am not supposed to start my period for another week or week and a half. I also work at a furniture store and assist in loading the furniture. The pressure is getting pretty intense at times. I made a doctors appointment but i cant get in there for another week. What is going on????? Please help...

Chiropractors have helped me and my family tremendously throughout our lives for numerous symptoms, illnesses and injuries. If the spine is out of alignment, everything goes wrong.
Did you stay consistant with your chiropractic appointments? If you continue to do work that throws your back out, then you have to continue to treat your back.
Is he a good chiropractor? Did he ex-ray you? If not, find a new one. A fancy building doesn't always mean a good chiropractor.
If your 3 visits were withing the past week, only then would I keep your appointment with your doctor to have ex-rays done.
Periods don't always appear on time. I suggest you take a muscle relax like ibuprofen (maximum dosage). This could be from your cycle. I pain in these particular areas during that time. Heavy lifting can cause you to have a hernia. Be careful. This is a painful process which surgery is the only way to correct the problem. Watch out for those Chiropractors. Take some warm baths twice a day, this should help also. Get well soon.
You're pregnant, or you have a hernia.
Have you told the doctor about the bleeding? Usually they would treat that a little more urgently and get you an appointment right away.
Otherwise from the information you've given it could still be a multitude of things. From a simple bladder infection to other more serious things.
It's more important that you go seek medical attention as soon as you can though to make sure it's nothing dangerous.. since bleeding (if not related to your period) is generally a bad sign...
sorry i can't be of more help. :/
IT COULD POSSIBLY BE A KIDNEY INFECTION OR BLADDER INFECTION. MAYBE YOU SHOULD GO TO THE E.R.INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR A WEEK.
