YOU'LL BE GLAD TO KNOW THAT A DOCTOR WOULD BE ABLE TO DETERMINE IF BACK PAIN IS BEING FAKED CLINICALLY (THATS TO SAY, WITHOUT THE NEED OF INVESTIGATIONS).  SCANS WOULD PROVE BEYOND DOUBT, AND WOULD HAVE THE ADDED BENEFIT OF PROVIDING EVIDENCE OF WHETHER ANY INJURY DISCOVERED WERE NATURAL ACCIDENTAL INJURIES OR SELF/DELIBERATELY INFLICTED (SOME DOCTORS SPECIALISE IN IDENTIFYING THESE FEATURES).\n\nTHE CONSEQUENCE MAY BE THAT A PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATION IS REQUESTED TO DETERMINE IF THE PATIENT HAS UNDERLYING ISSUES OR PSYCHIATRIC ILLNESS (SUCH AS MUNCHAUSEN'S SYNDROME - WHERE THE PT. FAKES OR INDUCES ILLNESS SO AS TO SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION).

Yes...extra weight (especially in the stomach area) can cause back problems.....also try getting a good mattress.

Pain depends on you, and the locations. The back, i don't have one there, but i'd imagine the second the niddle goes over you'r spine it will. I heard that hurts a lot. There, and under you're arm, like if you were to get a tribal band done..

They may not because of liability issues if you hurt yourself or someone else. I would check the website and look for a contact link somewhere and ask them.

First, see a doctor for xrays to rule out pinched nerve, cracked or broken bone(s) that may not have healed properly. Also rule out tendon or muscle pulls you may be continuing to aggravate due to your natural movements, work, sports, etc. Once you have ruled out those causes:\nFor some people, sleeping on a hard surface, like the floor, for 7-10 days can greatly reduce or eliminate the pain, since you are not putting extra tension on the back while sleeping/tossing/turning.  Do this after a very warm 20 minute bath which will relax your muscles and help you sleep.\nSit-ups, as many as you are comfortable with, daily will strenghthen abdominal muscles which will take strain away from back muscles for natural support. Massage therapy from a RMT can work wonders as well. Consult your physician about chiropractic, with a full understanding of the possible risks and benefits. Avoid Rx unless it is your last resort,  consulting with a pharmacist for precise advice. Products such as "Icy Hot" patches are very effective for temporary 8-12 hour relief. Carefully examine your posture while sitting and standing, expecially at the computer. Use a very good chair with proper lumbar support and maintain a straight back, not slouching. If you frequently have to drive for long periods and your vehicle is not properly equipped, buy a good quality lumbar/leg support seat pad, perhaps with the heating and/or vibration options at any dept store.\nIn Canada, you can actually get a Rx from your doctor to purchase a hot tub/jacuzzi, making the purchase deductible from your income tax. Check with your tax dept. A hot tub is excellent therapy if you have no cardiovascular conditions, such as hyper or hypotension and mostly fun anyway!

Depends on how long it takes for you to go get it...lol\n\nNo it all depends on how serious it is...slipped disc; months maybe even never... pulled muscle a few days or a week...if it is soo sore that you can barely sit then you should get it checked for a more serious injury.

I have had lower back pain that just suddenly knocks me off my feet and hurts for days, but never a throbbing pain. After being checked out a few times, doctors have concluded that I am under stress,  or I pinched a nerve, or I was lifting something wrong, but they can't point to anything physically wrong. It has cost me a lot of money to hear the words, "I don't know..." I usually just take some Dones back pills, and as soon as I can hot showers and the pain goes away in 3 or 4 days.\n\nThe last time my back went out, I was tighing my shoelace. The weight of the shoelace must have caused me to stress out and I pinched a nerve.

It is very bad for you, especially for your neck and back.  It wouldn't take much for you to "crack" your spine the wrong way and end up paralyzed.  That's why professionals go to school for that.  go to a Chiropractor and have it done professionally.

There might be some quacks out there, or Chiropractors that make a mistake, but for the most part what they do is very safe in general.  Go to a reputable chiropractor if you're going and not the cheapest.

It's part of a national campaign to educate women about heart disease. they encourage people to wear red in support. they say back pain can be a symptom of a serious heart problem in women. I'd also check with the American Heart Association.

probably caused due to the stress and tension in the muscles that support the spine.  A regular practice of yoga offers an effective cure for back pain.  Thus Yoga is an excellent therapy for healing injured and sore back muscles, speeding time to recover from an injury and preventing reinjury. It also reduces the risk of disability due to back pain.  you can try

I think a back brace would be really helpful to you. I have linked to one of the best back braces out there.

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.
