[rainbow dancer]

Had to visit doc today as have had back pain for a week now, doc thinks is my bad posture when i went swimming (and poss stretching of ligaments) useing hot water bottle and pressure relief pillow. Had to give in and have some paracetamol as painfull +++ any suggestions for alternative would be greatly accepted xx

I find a nice warm bath helps!! I would say hot bath but we're not allowed them hope you fill better soon!

and I would sleep on your side with knees bent at right angles and back in allignment , on the best mattress in your house!

Hope it eases soon for you

You can use a deep heat rub, I know you're definitely allowed the boots brand one and I find it really helps with muscle pain. Only problem is I can't use it right now because my sense of smell is so strong that it makes me vomit

I can sympathise, I am suffering with the back ache, I see a chiropractor every couple of months and I am due to go in July, hoping i can wait until then.

Hope it eases up for you. Heat pack and baths are a fab idea.

I know how you are feeling.
I went out partying on sunday evening, in very high heals and danced all evening, since then i have been in so much pain. It isn't nice is it, on top of feeling so tired.

Edit to say: I can't bare it any more i have booked a chiropractors appointment for tomorrow morning. I am lucky as she knows me well enough that i only ring when it is bad.

country pumbkin how did you get on with chiropractor?? am seriously thinking of going to see one! x

 

[Mrs_B]

Did the chiropractor do different adjustments as you are pg? I am due to see my chiropractor on 3rd Jul, wondering if my treatment will be different.

 

[Countrybumpkin]

As normal i came away and felt so much worse and as the evening came i felt terrible (always do). Today is a different story, i feel so much better it was well worth going and would highly recommend it. The pain relief is just amazing.

She also does a pregnancy treatment, which she gave me a leaflet on, so i think i might have a go.

Aww thanks thats a great help. i think i will give it till monday and if not any better will go and see one. is very difficult as my injury is sports injury and therefore im hoping it will adjust itself again soon (well hers hoping!!) x
