if you're female change bra's & sleep on your stomach. If you're male lift with your knees & wear a weight belt. Use heating pads at night no more than 2hrs. check your shoes & poster. also check to see if you have diabeties. best of luck.

Going to the park, or just taking deep breaths.\nJust, sit back and relax like they say.\n\nOr driving also helps me relax until a stupid ass comes along.

First, you need to decrease the pain.  Depending upon how long you have had the injury/problem would depend upon the advice I would give.  Ice normally works well for recent injuries - use for 10 minutes every hour.  If the problem is older than 7-10 days, try heat for 15-20 minutes.  If in doubt, use ice as heat can sometimes make it worse (even though it feels good).\n\nWhat sort of positions help to decrease your pain?  Different back problems respond to different exercises.  A really good website is www.mckenziemdt.org.  You can also find a certified McKenzie therapist who can determine the cause of your back problem.  This is a well researched technique which I use extensively with my back pain patients.\n\nOnce things start to calm down, I always use Pilates mat exercises, with modifications as necessary.  These will work the core muscles in your lower abdomen.  By getting these stronger, you can almost form a corset of muscular strength around the lower back.  Pelvic floor exercises/Kegals can also be important, especially if you have had a baby or other pelvic floor problems.\n\nA referal from your doctor to a good physical therapist should be able to determine the cause of your back problem and you will receive the correct advice to your problem.\n\nGood luck!

advil or tylenol is what i was recommended.  didn't completely relieve the pain, but it helped to ease it.

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 nice long soak in the tub with a glass of your favorite beverage (wine, mixed drink, sherry etc.) with the lights low and soft music like classical. (Calgon take me away!!!) Use a soothing bath salt or bath beads with scents of lavender or rosemary.  More than likely that long day at work caused a lot of tension to build up. That long soak will help relax the tensed muscles. Before you go to bed take a ibuprofen like Motrin (only if you are still aching).

at the back of your head at the top of your spine there is a groove  .this is where all the nerve endings are, try massaging that spot also move your fingertips over your scalp and feel for some sore spots, massage those too as these are the trigger points for whatever ails your back and shoulders

This could actually be referred pain.Pain resulting from an underlying cause elsewhere.\nBest things to do to try to alleviate these pains(after a brief but thorough warm up) are neck rolling front to back and reverse,clasp something up high and gently and slowly support your own weight while stretching your back.Exhale slightly every time you stretch a little more.Straddle stretch while turning one side then the other reaching for your toes with the opposite hand.Sit on the floor with your legs spread,slowly lean forward then to either side.NEVER bounce when you stretch as this activates the myotatic reflex and can tighten the tear the muscle.\nTry taking hot baths and ibuprofen(not Tylenol) as an anti inflammatory.

Try a relaxation exercise. With some light classical music in the background, lie down on your back and relax each and every muscle, one at a time. Start with your toes, then move to your feet, then ankls, calfs, knee, and so on. When you are done, go through the list again and make sure everything is relaxed. Then just let your mind go. You basically go into a meditation state and you get so relaxed from it, that (for me at least) you go from there straight to sleeping without even know it.

Take a hot shower, or even a bubblebath, put on your favorite music, doesn't have to be mellow, then get back on here and get some more points.. but only answer the ones that make you reply in a silly mode.\n\nI answered this the other day, hope you're feeling better, but just in case, here's some directions for you to follow.\n\nPlace your right hand on the back of your left shoulder\nPlace your left hand on your right side about midway between shoulder and hips\nSqueeze for the count of 10 seonds, while closing your eyes.\nHold On\nPat shoulder with with right hand 4 times,\nRub side with left hand,\nRelease.. \nSometimes nothing makes me feel better than having a hug, hope this hug from me to you made you feel better.

It could be anything really. Your posture. A trapped nerve. A damaged disc. \n\nHave you tried sleeping with lots of cushions to support your legs?  eg making sure you are totally relaxed and supporting any areas that feel not so comfortable? A small cushion in the base of your neck? A couple under your knees to make sure your knees dont lock in the night putting prerssure on your spine?\n\nExperiment with it and see what works.  My friend props herself on her side in the recovery position and places a cushion behind her back so she doesnt roll over, and one inbetween her knees as she doesnt like the feeling of bone on bone. Her back pain has been tons better jsut lately due to this.

lots of bed rest, lots of liquids, and lots of chicken noodle soup. the best way is simply to rest and allow your body to do its work.  :-)

Try sleeping w/a pillow between your legs or you can try a spray called BIOFREEZE.  You can purchase that usually at a chiropractors office.  It works pretty good.  Also, stretching out the back muscles helps out a lot too.  Good luck.
