Avatar f tn i have sever lower back pain on the right side, it hurts to breath and gets worse if i move around to much.What could it be and wha will help?
Avatar f tn Still not doing any better, I have the cramping still, infact it woke me up at 5am today. I had tried a warm bath, infact several of them, a back massage, strecthing, you name it and it hasn't helped. I called my doc, and he said some people reported back pain with the Prednisone and Zithromax combo so he is having me take a low dose 200mg of Alieve to see if it takes the pain away.

I woke up this morning felling fine, but within 20 minutes it could barely make it down the stairs to the kitchen. . . Now I'm at work (feeling like I'm 70 years old) with a heating pad, and not able to do much but sit here. What did you guys take or do to help? Oh I'm 10 weeks by hte way.
977540 tn?1248378757 I went to the doctor and he put me on the Medrol 6 day dosage which is a steroid. It worked for 6 days and then came back and then the doctor put me on 2400mg a day of Ibuprofen which has not worked. I am going to my Oncologist tomorrow for my 6 month check up and will ask him. I also have very bad muscle spasms the past 6 months. I am told working at a desk job all day is not good for posture and that can cause back issues. I hope your clears up soon.

Avatar f tn I have been having headaches for a month, lower back and abdominal pain for two weeks. Along with these I have a nausea feeling. the lower back pains are unbearable. I don't have uti cause I know what that is and I am wondering what could it be. I took a 800 mg ibuprofen and it took the pain a little but not completely. To explain the pain better it feels like I am going into labor but I'm not pregnant. Does anyone know what it could be?
Avatar n tn i work out alot by doing weightlifting and running. i am feeling joint pain in the lower back area. A year ago i injured my lower back and it took months to heal. i am wondering if there is somthing that i can take to help my pain and if these symptoms are only temporary.
5386710 tn?1367230145 Most back pain goes away on its own within 6 weeks. Walking is good for most back isssues. You could take ibuprofen.
Avatar m tn I'm suffering from severe pain on the left side of my hips, which I believe is the cause for my lower back pain on my left side as well. I am not crazy about taking pain pills nor can't afford a professional massage or chiropractic therapy. Besides exercises and the like, are there any other milder pain medication. besides Ibuprofen and aspirin that I can take that have no side effects and/or are not addictive?

Avatar f tn t feel any pain that day but I slept on a motor home bed that night and since that morning I have had intense lower back pain. I didn't fall while skiing or anything and although I was skiing hard, nothing went wrong. Could this be from the bed? It hurts a little to walk and it really hurts to bend over or lay down. Why do I have such back pain and what can I do about it??
Avatar n tn Tylenol is the only safe pain medicine u can take while pregnant...I'm not totally for sure what would happen with the ibuprofin, but I wouldn't chance it!! That seems like a lot to take at one time!!?? I was given 800 mg to take after my c-sections!! You must really be suffering with some serious pain hun..talk with ur doc on what is safe for you to take!!
Avatar f tn i woke up a week ago with pain in my lower back and now it has moved to my right hip ,i found it difficult to get out of bed this morn ,any idea whats wrong with me ,im in agony ,karen
Avatar f tn If the anti-inflamitory aspect of the ibuprofen helps, then it probably is sciatica, and you can use ibuprofen (within reason) for most of the pain, and only use the tramadol when the pain gets intollerable.
1386405 tn?1291587800 ok I just read online that you are not suppose to take ibuprofen while you are pregnant again im 5 weeks i took total of seven not all together of course over say a period of maybe two days due to a severe toothache did i do something stupid is my baby going to be ok.
Avatar m tn im 16 and have had pain in the title area for a long time. when i go to bed (lower right back next to spine) and in the morning (usually my lower right intestine) the pain is burning and sharp, and i dont think it occurs when i do anything particularly...........i think it could be just stool buildup but i poo regularly........plz help thx!
Avatar f tn I am 17 days post op and have generalized back, neck, pain and stiffness for past 6 days. Worse with deep breaths but a visit to ER already ruled out P.E. It is slowing me down considerably giving mobility problems. At 2 week post op check I looked real good despite the back pain and didn't cringe when Dr. poked at back. She suggested to continue ibuprofen 600 3 x day though I'd been on it for 2 weeks already once or twice daily. I don't need to see surgeon for a year.
Avatar f tn I'm almost 12 weeks and am having the worst back pain ever in my lower back hip area it is worse when I try to sit or stand and makes it difficult to walk is there anything at all I can do to relieve my pain
Avatar f tn ive had lower right side of my back pain for two days i thought i needed to go to the bathroom so i took pills to help me go finally 24 hours later i went but my back is still hurting some and it feels like ive been hit on that side it is so sore any suggestions
Avatar f tn Not sure this is sciatica, having had it twice. That runs down the outside of the leg. The pain could be hip pain, lower back pain, etc. but the swelling? That doesn't match. Time for a visit to the doc.
Avatar f tn Hi you guys this is my first baby so I'm freaking I am having lower back pain not really bad just a dull pain and also cramps that come and go is this normal

1158557 tn?1262725929 Try not to feed into it and use a heating pad in that area and it will help. Ibuprofen works really well for back pain. Your doing great. This shouldn't last to much longer. Hang in there buddy!!!!
