Re: Backpain?

[Guest guest]

I also have had bad back pain. Along the sides of my spine....mid back to low. The muscles just go nuts.....and cause much achy pain.

The thing that works for me is to lay curled in a fetal position with a pillow between my knees. This always helps. When the worst of the pain is gone......then I try to do some stretches......

Advil's or Excedrin also help. As does heat and cold.

Good luck.

Jill, I will try that as my back is killing me since yesterday. A long

time ago the dr. gave me some Celebrex,naturally that makes me sick to

my stomach,what do you think about Celebrex? I don't want to add

another problem to my allready problem ridden body....Thanks,

Celebrex made me swell up like a blowfish! I am allergic to sulfa and the docs forgot:-(

The pillow works wonders.....my hubby even does it as do my sons......let me know how it works for you.
