Q: Dead Spot on back
asked by: No_Leaf_Clover on June 4th, 2008

This doesn't have so much to do with my back, but there is a spot of skin a few inches to the left of my spine that was about the size of a quarter 2 years ago that would "act up" when my body was tired or stressed. It would get tingly when I'd sit up on a stool for too long or just sitting uncomfortably. When I would touch it, it didn't have much feeling. My friends told me it might be pinched nerves. In the past few months i've noticed that the spot has gotten larger...it's not visible its between the bone and the top of the skin. It's not so much tingly now as it feels more like a large mosquito bite. I hope its nothing serious. I can't go to the doctor because I don't have health insurance until the end of August. Sad

Hello NoLeafClover,

In reading your post, I frankly become very concerned. Is there some way you can get some interim insurance so that you can see a doctor sooner than the end of August? Sure do hope so.

hi,sorry to know it

It seem you suffer from soft tissue injury (tendon or ligments)nothing about pinched nerves.

Keep moving and deep massage for it
Good luck!
