Firstly, how long have you had this pain? Secondly, what were you doing that caused this?  I find that besides cold/heat treatment, I use motrin.  It really helps me.  I also try to carefully, emphasize carefully, do back stretcht.  Lean forward slowly and to the side.  Lastly, try not to make major movement and then rest in combination with cold treatment and motrin.  Do no take more motrin than the recommended dosage/day.  \n\nGood luck.  If nothing works for a "long" time see an MD or a chiropractor.

Ouch! Nerve pain like that is just awful. If you haven't experienced it, you can't explain it to someone else. It is so intense! When I was in my forties, I wrenched my lumbar vertebrae helping a service man move a 300-lb. gas cylinder. I even heard it when my back went out. I went to a chiropractor, and he cleared that out in ONE visit. Until you find a way you are willing to try, use ice to reduce the inflammation. When you do that to your back, everything gets swollen up and pushed tightly together. The ice pack makes the muscles contract and open up inside so all the parts can move again. This tightening up is called "splinting," and is a natural mechanism your body uses to protect that painful place in your back. The ice pack should be kept on twenty to twenty-five minutes per hour, possibly four times during the day. You will notice it getting much easier to bear. The ice pack also tells your brain to send more blood to that area, which helps to flush all that congestion away from the sore spot. I strongly urge you to see a chiropractor. In ONE visit, you will be able to immediately find relief to a very considerable extent from what has probably been driving you up the walls. The problem with this kind of pain is that it is relentless and does not stop while you are trying to sleep at night. If you begin to miss your sleep cycle, you will get strung out, crabby and irritable, and that just adds to it. So - if you are not keen on chiropractors, go to your family doctor instead, but do not sit home, in agony and immobilized in a chair. That would be just too stressful. Call a best friend to drive you to and from, if that would help you. Reach out. I am hoping others in this column at Yahoo! Answers will also offer you ways to get better really quickly. Please accept this huge load of love and support from Chris in South Portland, Maine, U.S.A. (I am 63 years old.)

It does seem like a nerve problem, probably compression of a nerve(s). Do not strain your back. Complete bed rest, OTC medication to relieve the pain and consult the doc asap. A CT/MRI would be needed to confirm.\n\nHope that helps\nRgds\nLex

Firstly i think your presuming its your Fallopian tubes !! as the pain from these normally radiates in your back (just like when your kidneys flair up)  You need to go back to your GP and discuss with him that if it is not womb/tubes pain it may be kidney stones or even a severe water infection...  if he/she refuses to treat you go elsewhere you are entitled to a 2nd opinion....

Have you contacted a doctor yet? How long has this been going on? There are many non-invasive treatments now available. \nTry using ice packs and heat pad alternately, 20 minutes each. The ice will numb the pain and the heat will relax the muscles. Also, Arnica massage oil used on the location will help ease the pain. Keep moving! Bed rest is good but not all day. However do not try lifting or reaching. Gentle stretches would be best. Also listen to soothing music while stretching, and visualize your back being in perfect condition, the disc slipping back into place smoothly and gently.\n\nHope this helps! with blessings

I would tell the Dr. about your sharp pains, but it could be caused by the stretching of your uterus to make room for your growing  baby. I remember feeling this way as the baby grew inside me. The feeling was kind of like a side stitch or pulling sensation. I hope this helps, but still ask your Dr. God Bless you and your baby!

It may be torn muscle. That can come from overworking.\n\nIt may also be nerve impingement. If the pain is really sharp, burning kind of sensation, or you get any associated numbness or tingling, that points to inpingement.\n\nEither way, you can talk to your doctor or a massage therapist. They'll be able to do a hands on assessment and tell you whats goin on.

Please see a doctor, it sort of sounds like sciatica but you need to have a professional examine you and make a diagnosis.

It could be a hernia or something like that. Or it could just be muscle pain. I would see your doctor to make sure that there is nothing serious going on.

If the pain is in the middle of your back and your stomach it could be gallstones.  The pain can come suddenly and there is no position that is comfortable, it can last from 20 minutes to hours and even days.  It is a horrible pain and can put you out of commision quickly.  I have lower back pain often but it is unrelated to my gallstones, I don't know if this could be your problem but if it is I feel for you.

could be a pinched nerve. try stretches, heat, massage, see a doctor as a last result. alot of things can be taking over the counter.

My pain started in my right butt cheek and went down the back of my calf. It got progressively worse until I was literally paralyzed. I was on the 7th floor of a nice hotel and they ended up having to take me out on a luggage cart. (a first for me sober) The pain can go all the way to your heel. The pain can get so bad you will be willing to try witchcraft or drink gasoline if someone tells you it will make it feel better.

your back is tense and stress will add to the pain too.  you need to stretch the muscles out and put ice on it. slowly put your head from one side to the other and gently stretch for 25 seconds. repeat on the other side.  take some tynelos or ibuprofen if it does not go away. ice helps too.   hope you feel better!

It does sound like your back. Typically a pinched nerve in the mid thoracic area will affect an organ or nerve ending creating some pain. I would first get some deep tissue massage done on that area and see if it relieves some of your discomfort. Sometimes an imbalance in muscles will pinch those nerves in the spine. If it doesn't relieve it I would get a different opinion to find out what is going on.

sounds like sciatica. take some brufen and make an appointment to visit your GP.
