I have noticed the same thing with my memory foam bed. I guess they aren't for everyone.\n\nI would try a warm bath or a heating pad or even one of those therma care patches.\n\nAs dumb as this may sound - you might be constipated. Lower back pain on one side can be a sign of that.

Assuming it is mechanical back pain, try ice or heat, with Anti-inflammatory, tylenol, and relative rest, see doctor if it continues.

there is a yoga exercise which can increase your height by 4cm within a year if you do it every day.... its called "the plough posture" and its also great for releavig back pain in some cases...\n\nits pretty easy, all you have to do is lie down on your back(on the floor), bring both legs over your head and try to keep them straight... stretch your hands out so that they are parallel to your legs... while youre in this position breathe slowly and deeply from the abdomen and concentrate on the spine. Stay in the posture for about 1 minute.....  To come out of the posture, just slowly uncurl the spine... do not panic if you feel an uncomfortable feeling in your back once you place youre legs back on the floor... just lie there for a couple of minutes and relax..... \n\nthe exercise opens up the spinal discs and stretches most spinal muscles and ligaments...  its very good for your back...\nBUT IF YOU HAVE SOME PROBLEMS WITH YOURE BACK YOU SHOULD TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO DO THIS EXERCISE.....

hi,\n\nTaking pain killers to relief from your back is not your right decision. Pain killers have great side effects. Avoid taking pain killers if the pain is not severe. Home remedies are safe and secure for your future health too. Some effective home remedies for back pain are:\n\n* Raw potato is an ancient home remedy for backache, Application of raw potato in the form of a poultice has been found very effective in this condition. \n* Massage with eucalyptus oil is also very effective remedy, mustard oil can also be used. \n* Take half a gram of dalchini powder with one-teaspoon honey at least twice a day for best results. \n* Oil prepared from garlic and rubbed on the back will give immediate relief. \n\nGood Day !!\nMaria

The key points about most back pain and sciatica are: \n\nDo not worry - it will usually get better on its own, within a few days, or possibly a few weeks. \nStay active, and if at all possible, stay at work. \nThe pain may force you to rest, but this is a result of the pain, and not a good treatment for back pain and sciatica. If you have to take to your bed, limit it, if possible, to a week or two at the most. \nUse simple pain killers, such as paracetamol or ibuprofen if necessary. \nAvoid activities likely to put unnecessary strain on your back. \nSee your doctor if you think you are in one of the red flag categories, or are worried about how you are doing. \nIf it seems to be lasting more than a few days, consider seeing a physiotherapist, chiropractor or osteopath. You may wish to consult your doctor prior to this. \nIf you do have to be off work, keep this to a minimum, and do not expect to be pain free before you go back. \nIf the pain is severe and very disabling, and you cannot control it with simple pain killers and/or anti-inflammatory medication, your doctor may suggest you have an epidural injection, which is an injection into the spine, which soothes the nerves that are causing the pain. \nIn a minority of cases, the sciatica does not settle, or complications arise. This may lead your doctor to recommend surgery, which will involve trimming back bone or disc material which is pressing on the nerve or nerves. This is not undertaken lightly, and will be guided by the results of a CT or MRI scan. \n\n\nMore at: http://www.medinfo.co.uk/conditions/sciatica.html

There are so many causes of lower back pain that it would take a while to list them all.  They include kidney stones, spinal cord injury, disk disease, improper lifting, sprains and strains, sciatica, pinched nerve, compression fracture, prostate cancer or breast cancer that has spread to the spine, and the list goes on.  The most important thing is that if you have lower back pain that isn't respoinding to the usual treatments and lasts for more than a week, see your doctor.  Most likely it isn't anything serious, but it could be serious.

This happens to me, but I have a herniated disc in my lower back.  For those of you with healthy backs, if you are still getting pain get a more comfy chair, get up and move around more often and last but not least sit with good posture!!  Posture will not only make your back feel better but it makes you look more confident and presentable in public.

Try a complementary therapy. Aromatherapy- you get a massage and some sweet smelling herbs/plants which aim to help you i.e lavander rubbed into your back or whole body.

A chiropractor fixed mine. Setting down makes it worse, so avoid this. Use a lumbar pad to relieve the pressure on your back. This was about twenty years ago. Still good.

I have scoleosis and spina bifida.  My problems are structural, not muscular.  I quit using my back after multiple injuries because I was so afraid that I would reinjure it.  Then the muscles in my back began to weaken.  I went to see a chiropractor, and this helped some.  He referred me to a good physical therapist (which is a rare thing in this day and age) who prescribed an exercise regimen to strengthen my core muscles.  Strengthening those muscles completely eradicates my back pain.\n\nI have walked your path (and still do frequently as I had to quit my exercise regimen for a while and the pain returned), and I literally feel your pain.  Blessings to you and good luck, and I most sincerely mean that.

anti-inflammatories are good.\n\nI wouldn't suggest a chiropractor.\n\nWith all four of my pregancies my pain worsened every time...use a heating pad whenever you are laying down or "reclining".  Sleep with a pillow in between your legs, it helps for a lot of things even if you aren't pregnant.\n\nDepending on your current fitness activity too much can simply make it worse.\n\nin short...heating pad, anti-inflame drugs and sleep with a pillow in between your legs

Sciatica is characterised by pain in the lower back region, buttock and leg.  It can be caused by something pressing on the sciatic nerve and responds well to osteopathy, physiotherapy and chiropractor treatment.  If it is sciatica and you want temporary relief buy a heat pad from boots or any other leading chemist.  I use therma heat which straps around the lower back and have regular physiotherapy.  Check out google to get a more through description.

Homeopathy :-\nThe remedy most similar to your conditions is the best remedy for your backache, remember Homeopathy treats the person not the disease or disorder. For gas backache take NUX VOMICA 30C and CARBO VEG 30C together thrice a day half hour before or after meals . In general ARNICA 30C, RHUS TOX 30C and BRYONIA 30C together thrice a day half hour before or after meals can be repeated at 15 or 30 minutes intervals in severe case, proves to be a good backache reliever in most cases. \nWhat will cure the patient is the remedy which is the most similar to his or her conditions .\nSo if you need to have your backache cured, please give your specific individual symptoms in detail exactly the way you feel them and feel the Cure !\nTake Care and God Bless !

The lower back pain could be related to the TOS, since the nerves travel everywhere. From what I understand from my own doctors, the first treatment for TOS is physical therapy. You might be able to find a PT in your area, who deals with TOS, that uses sliding scale fees. Good Luck.

Without knowing anything else about the situation it seems that you have an low back problem. Find yourself a good chiropractor--someone your friends or family know and trust. Check out the website below for more information and possible Dr's to help you out. In the meantime work on stretches for the low back and legs.  Also use ice on the part of your low back that seems to be involved.  Avoid heat.  I hope this helps. \n\nhttp://www.gonsteadseminar.com then click on referrals and find your state

I find already three answers are there and the second one even gives you certain very good medicines .\nI do suffere from it L4 & L5 disc prolapse and under went treatment for more than one month admission in hospital.\nWeights were added to pull the leg through pulleys and immediately pain would go After some time the pain used to relapse and only when weights are removed the pain used to subside!!!Then SCIATICA developed. \nWhen you are affected badly having pain take rest. Lie down.\nLet the bed be hard one. Keep a prop up in the back while lying on back\nTake neurobion tablets to strengthen the nerves .Take DICHLOGESIC tablets .If any nervine injectionws are there take one course.When pain is more take pain killer tablets.\nBE ON BED REST till you become normal.\n\nDont sit on floor cross leged.Sit in  chairs straight and up right with a pop up to the back. There are certain chairs specially developed for this problem.Wear the hip belt.\nIt has a steel plate a small flat piece which helps as additional support to your back bone. WEAR IT ALWAYS.\nREMOVE only at night so that the nerves get relaxed at night.DONT EVER LIFT ANY WEIGHT. Even light weight learn how to sit and lift and not by bending your chest forward to lift the weight.Dont climb upstairs with weight.\nDont travel in two wheelers or in buses in back seat on bumpy roads. Every jerk adds to your problem.\nThere are certain exercises to lubricate the affected parts and to remove its frigidness. \nLifting one leg staright up without pain lying backwards and with one leg straightened and rotating it clockwise and anti clockwise. Just three four times and bring down and rest, \nRepeat with the other leg.Initially even lifting up may be painful. Dont exercise when pain is there.\nSame way lying on belly lift one leg up backwards straight without bending.\nStand up on toes with hands on some support like railings.\nLye on back kkep a low stool on which you lift and put your two legs and press the back to the floor. and then relax.\n\nGo to any hospital site and see the exercises for DISC PROLAPSE.

Courtney, you should try chiropractic care.  It is a safe and gentle way to help with chronic back pain, even from scoliosis.  I work for a chiropractor in South Carolina and she uses a new technology of chiropractic treatment that doesn't have any twisting, poping or cracking when the adjustment is delivered.  It is called the Pro-Adjuster and many chiropactors all over the world are beginning to use this technology.  We had a 27 year old male with chronic back pain from his scoliosis and he received dramatic relief in just a few treatments.  Make sure to do your research on doctors in your area, so you can find a chiropractor who fits into your specific needs.  If you want more information on the Pro-Adjuster and to find doctors in your area using it, go to www.pro-adjuster.com.
