Suggestions for dealing with upper back pain?

September 5th, 2009 by admin

I have a terrible pain in my upper back since yesterday. It feels like I strained a muscle. I didn’t do anything strenuous. It just came on me all of a sudden. I can’t lie comfortably and when I laugh it hurts. Any suggestions what this might be? I got sunburn on my face yesterday as well but don’t know if that has anything to do with it.

It still sounds musculoskeletal despite the lack of strenuous involvement (as activity worsens the pain). Try OTC pain relief like Advil 800mg q8hrs as needed. Stretching exercises and ice will also help. Obviously abstain from any hard activities or exercise. If it still hurts after a week and is not improving see your GP and consider physical therapy or further imaging studies depending on your history and background, age, etc.

What are the best Nike shoes for running with lower back pain?

September 5th, 2009 by admin

I have lower back pain but I want to run. What Nike model should I buy which is better to avoid lower back pain?

Don’t buy nike running shoes!!

Go to a store that specializes in running shoes and they will help you out with what kind of shoe is best for your type of foot.
Each person is different but Asics have never steered me wrong. neither have new balance. Mizuno are pretty good as well as Saucony(sp?)

If I have low back pain and urinary problems, what does that mean?

September 5th, 2009 by admin

Today I went to my doctor because I’ve been having excruciating lower back pain. X-Rays looked fine, but then he asked me if I was having any urinary problems. I said no because I was embarrassed to say so.

What could be wrong with me if I have both those problems?

possible kidney problems maybe? (not to mean they are, so i wouldnt get worried till the doctor diagnosis you)

however as the x-ray was fine, it might not be kidney stones
but if you tell him about your urine problems, he’l probs might wanna do a blood test or a test on your urine for blood

but if your having any blood in your urine, or urine problems, i would definitly tell your doctor as this could prgress diagnosis, and just be honest, they are there to help you, not to judge you.

good luck.
