i forgot to say something else. if they offer you a massage without an x-ray. Don’t do it.
my friend had something that sounded like yours. she was in pain all the time. when she finally got to see a sports doctor, he diagnosed it as a pulled back muscle and prescribed a sports massage for her. Thankfully the psychiotherapist decided to defy the doctor’s orders and send her for an x-ray before commencing on the prescribed back rub. The x-ray showed that she had a severely slipped disc and the massage would have paralysed her from waist down.
please take good care of yourself. the back is a really sensitive part of your body….. okays??
joyce

I couldn’t bear to go to the doc’s today but I will have to tomorrow if this doesn’t clear up.. I can’t go through another day like this, I’m going to go crazy with pain! But good idea on the x-ray thing, and I’m going to ask for some serious painkillers too…

I’ve this this problem before
please go see a doctor. thankfully mine was diagnosed as a mere sprain. the doctor siad it was prob due to me playing too aggressive basketball thus i must have overstretched my back muscles. he gave me this muscle rub thing and it feels way better after i used it.
try to think back. did you do anything strenuous lately? played any sport? moved any heavy furniture? ‘cos my pain only kicked in a week after i played bball so it took me a while to figure out and tell the doc who realised the part of my back which hurts corresponded to the muscles one usually uses while playing basketball. try to think hard so u can tell the doc and help him figure out wat’s wrong with u.
go see a doctor asap or u won’t get any peace of mind, any pain relief and it won’t help you in your studying too.
hope it’s nothing serious. take care!

Re: I’ve this this problem before
Hi Yvonne 🙂 The thing is I don’t do sports or strenous activity at all, so it’s really weird! I DID clean our apartment about 2-3 weeks ago and my back was really really painful (same area) after that but it went away by the next day.. so it can’t be releated right?
I couldn’t go today – was in so much pain that just the thought of getting up and leaving the house was too much for me to handle :T But I got through the day and if it’s bad tomorrow I’ll definitely have to go since I have no other choice. Horrible timing too, ‘cos of exams! 🙁

sounds pretty bad bev. you really should ask someone to take you to the hospital. any of your friends drive? if not just take a cab.

They do but NO one has a car ‘cos they’re all Collegians or ex-Collegians and since we all live on/around campus, a car’s not necessary. Ros’ boyfriend Khai has a car but they weren’t in all day.. I think I’ll have to go to the doc’s tomorrow if it gets worse :T

Goodness, sounds like you have a seriously pinched nerve or, worse yet, something wrong with one of your lumbar discs. It could be serious, so you’d better go to the hospital if no regular medical centers are open. Better safe than sorry!

I think it’s a pinched nerve too, cos I’m pressing my back and I can’t find a specific spot that hurts when I press it (like a muscle problem would). I hate feeling sick!!

Ughhhh easier said than done! 🙁 No one has a car and the clinic is half hr walk away and has a 1-2 hr wait – I can’t sit in that hard chair for that long.. This has made me realise how dangerous a position I am though, ‘cos if in the future something really bad happens, I don’t really have access to a doctor or hospital! :T
