Back pain

I think you may be going through stress because you are in high school. And everyone goes through stress when they are in some time of university or school, even high school. I suggest you take a hot shower or a bath and buy a heating pad for your back to put it at home when you sit down and watch tv or do chores. Cheers.

 

try both. and try buying if you can afford, which I can't, buy oils from stores and apply them on your back or do some stretching exercises for the back.

 

keep doing it, i do fun things through simple ways, very simple ways, we are going strict right now. And I am kinda getting sick and tired of eating out at restaurants all the time and going to movies where I can get my facts from the internet. Good luck bud.

 

Not a bad idea to have a doctor check you out, maybe take an x-ray to rule out anything with the spine. If you get the green light to exercise then you can try doing a combination of stretching & strengthening exercises - just do a search online and experiment with different ones to see what helps, or maybe consult with a physical therapist. I'm older than you and I've been getting alot of back pain over the past few years and my routine has helped me. Only took me like 20-30 mins. a day over the course of a couple months to see some results.

 

Go on youtube and search for athlean-x on this issue. Also, try to do some stretching for your lower back

 

Probably scoliosis, you should sleep on ground on the back and also strengthen your back muscles.

 

Describe the back pain.

1. Is it in the cervical (C-7; the topmost region by the neck), thoracic (T-12; the long back region), lumbar (L-5; bottom spine region) or sacral (absolute bottom- by the butt) region?

2. Which of the following is the pain exacerbated by?
(I) Mere contact on the region
(II) Pressure on or around the region
(III) Motion of the region
(IV) Masturbation (don't try it out "just to check" lmao)
You can pick more than 1 option as long as they apply.

3. Literally describe the pain. Talk about it to me the way you would to a professional asking you about it. Write a paragraph just explaining it. Please mention:
(I) how severe the pain is out of 10.
(II) how is the pain exactly? is it a sharp, stinging pain; a dull, aching pain; a pain like you've never experienced before; a lump-localised pain; etc.
(III) is it a gradually occuring event or constant?
(IV) how recent is its development?
(V) how does it affect your life? Which activities (or literally- actions) have been limited, restricted, or generally hampered by this development?

4. Do low-intensity painkillers and anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen, paracetamol and combiflam help in alleviating the pain?
(You can try this out. You're 16 so take 1 tablet of medication whenever you choose to.)
But take them one medication per day and make sure to check in advance if you are allergic to the active ingredient(s).
*If it helps; combiflam is a metered combination of paracetamol and ibuprofen.
*please confirm with your parents if these medications are new to you before ingesting them.

5. How does the pain respond to:
(I) cold
(II) warmth
(III) gradual pressure
(IV) sudden pressure

6. Is there any concurrent development such as:
(I) rashes
(II) inflammation
(III) colouration of the skin


Long list so understand it took me even longer to type it XD
Answer to the best of your capacity and it'll be worth it.

 

Coming from someone with scoliosis and had spinal fusion surgery, do N O T sleep on the ground. Go to the doc ASAP, get some x-rays and see if you need surgery, or a back brace or some kind of treatment.

(And future Hugo Strange mwa hahahahahahaha)

 

I have too, but I had insane pain and I fixed the pain by intensive training and going beyond the pain and then pain was gone and I got muscular back now.
I also did x-ray and went to doctors, so I know that I have it xD

I think it might depend on how serious scoliosis is though.
