Random pain in my spine?!

Random pain in my spine?

months i can be fine, but outa know where, ill be walking around or sitting on the couch and ill get this sharp pain in my lower back, sometimes it hurts bad sometimes it hurts severly, and the pain will last for a copuple hours to about a day and after that im fine. but the pain feels like somone it taking a knife and sticking it ito my spine and ripping my spinal cord. im only 19 and i dont think it has to do with age. im a little on the thick side but i know it dosent have to do with weight becase im verry active, and i dont remember or recall getting injured? anyone have the same problem or have any ideas? i try taking mortin and other medication and it dosent help, and i would go to the doctors but i dont feel like het telling me something i already knows, becase i already did and she said it could be my weight..... i dont think it is becase i may be on the thick side like i said but im a verry active person and its not like i sit on my *** all day

Have you been checked by your Dr for spinal curvature? Does your spinal cord have enough room, trouble with back pain is that it can be many things to cause the pain, like nerves, muscles, vertebrae, you will need to go and have an x-ray, MRI or a CAT scan.

I got Scoliosis (www.scoliosisnutty.com) when I was 11 years old and this was due to people calling me "hunchback", I went for a check up and was diagnosed that day, 3 months later I needed full spinal surgery, I am telling you this because I would hate for you to leave this symptom and find that it could have been stopped and corrected a lot easier than if you had left it - savvy?

Weight bearing can cause issues with backs, I have to stay below 11 stone otherwise my rods that hold my spine together could suffer issues from this, do you do any exercise like Yoga or Pilates, Swimming?

I really feel you need to see a Dr and if you are not happy with what he/she has diagnosed then you are entitled to another opinion.

Hope you can get this sorted
