My back hurts!

My lower back on the right hand side is killing me.  It really gets me when I'm walking.  I know it's only going to get worse from here, but I can't believe I'm in this much pain this early.

Anyone else in my boat?  How are you dealing with it?  Tylenol doesn't even touch it.

Re: My back hurts!

  • I was having upper back pain the other day and people suggested either a heating pad or an ice pack.  Hopefully one of those will work for you!  Maybe DH can give you a back rub?

  • Mine hurts if I stand for too long.  I just stay off my feet as much as possible and if its really bad maybe take a warm bath to try and relax your muscles.  Maybe your dr's office might have some other ideas too?

  • I have had this pain and worse since about 12 weeks. I ended up needing physical therapy. The best thing to do is ice and rest. Also I have found taking shorter and slower steps is helpful too. And I also have one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Serola-New-Sacroiliac-Belt/dp/B000NIESBG I don't wear it all the time, mostly when I know I will be on my feet a lot or walking a long distance.

  • I have pain if I stand too long or if I sit on the floor without my back supported.  I feel like an old lady when I get up cuz I can't walk straight I'm hunched over.  I get hubby to rub it and usually after a good nights sleep it goes away.

  • I have horrible lower back pain all the time...though my back was already messed up from scoliosis and from a couple of dweebs who have hit me in car accidents :(  Ice packs help and so do massages from DH. The chiro is incredible but right now we just can't afford it since it isn't covered by our insurance. I wish I had a nice warm bathtub to soak in right now mmmmmm
