I would suggest that you see a physician that specializes in back pain. I see a Physiatrist.
First you should rule out anything medically wrong with tests and a check up. Then see what the Physiatrist recommends. It may be Physical Therapy and some anti-inflammatory meds for a while. Examine your life style too. Are you sedentary, overweight? A light program of walking and stretching can be helpful to ease pain in the mean time before you can see the doctor. I also have had good luck with a Chiropractor. Back pain can have MANY causes. Sometimes the cause is never found and you just have to treat the pain. I do want to be clear...see a doctor first to rule out a medical condition that may be serious and need fast attention. If your feet are flat or "pronated" or if you have knock knees, orthotics that go in your shoes can help. If you are a woman have a gynecological check up to rule out ovarian cancer. It is VITAL! Good luck with getting the help you nedd to feel better. Fran
see your doctor, you can never be too careful when it comes to your back...
Yes, first check with your doctor. I have found getting massages can help relieve the pain if it is just stress related. Also, make sure you are at a proper weight, proper posture, and not carrying too much in a bag. I have also found that the heat wraps sold over the counter can give temporary relief.
But before anything else, check with your doctor so he/she can rule out anything medically causing the pain.
I agree with Sean. You should see a Dr. The Dr. will probably have you see a physical therapist for special exercises to strengthen your back muscles.
