hey, ive had back pain since early June
07. im only 16 and it irritates me that i
cant do a lot of stuff for a long period
of time. i took a weight lifting class for
school and thought that it might have been
why i had the back pain but summers almost
over and i havent worked out with weights
and i still have back pain. it started to
get better where it was pretty much
nothing at all about 2 1/2 months after it
started in june then i went to the
chiropractor and he did the usual thing
where he popped my back into place. but
after that it got back to almost as
painful as when it started. schools about
to start again and when i had back pain
during school it was painful sittin in the
chairs there so i really dont wanna go
through that again.

Hi Frank
Backs / spines are weird things, they are
the carriers of nerves which sends
messages from our bodies to our brain ..
our central nervous system...
Is your pain in your lower back? You could
have caused inflammation in the muscles
surrounding the are, causing this pain, if
not treated, the pain will remain. Are
you taking anti-inflammatory pills to
reduce this swelling ? Have you been and
seen a doctor for it?
You mention that you did weight lifting
before summer break, I'm not judging you
in any way, but could you have over-did
these weights, lift more than you should,
straining whilst you lifted.
As you haven't lifted during the break has
helped, however, you gotta keep up light
exercise, to stop your back seizing up.
It is hard to keep active when you are in
so much pain, but keep the movement
going.
Even if it is 'floor exercises'.
You need to strenghten the surrounding
muscles also, to protect your back, before
you take up weight lifting sports.
Please see a doctor, and get some medical
help with this ...
You take care Frank, and please keep in
touch with us.

Hi my names acctually Ryan and Franks is
my last name but its all good. But yeah it
started out with my whole back and for a
little while my neck but my first visit to
the chiropractor took care of that.
But no i havent taken any pills for my
back i usually just went to the
chiropractor expecting it to go away like
always. And yeah ive seen the same
chiropractor since i was little. I also
went up to see my aunt this summer and she
just became a doctor and she worked on my
back in a different way then my
chiropractor and it didnt help all that
much but the last time i saw the
chiropractor my back started to get better
but after he got done popping my back into
place it got back to hurting quite a bit.
it doesnt make sense to me why it doesnt
stay in place any more
in terms of the over doing weights i
probably didnt cause im a very saftey
concious person and i also dont remember
ever doing anything that involved my back.
i never did the squats mainly jus bench
press and arm curls.
and yeah ive done a few scissor kicks to
work on my abs and some push ups and pull
ups. and i also did use bench press when
my back started to get better but after
the chiropractor i dont even want to try.
thanks a lot for replying

I'm having lower back pain... and seeing a
chiropractor (but I think my chiropractor
is making it worse, not sure)... She just
tells me to do stretches and put an ice
pack on my back... but if there are pills
for inflamation I would love to try that
for the pain? I'm gonna have to ask my
family doctor about that. Thanks

yeah i had the same exact thing, you
should get an xray of your back. thats
what i did and found out that my lower
back isnt as stable as it should be so now
my chiropractor is doing things
differently that are acctually working.

Any radiating pain could be a sign of
nerve damage. Back pain should always be
diagnosed and treated by a specialist.
Proper diagnostics should include an x-ray
examination and an MRT if needed.
