Back Pain

I am only 22 weeks but have been having some really bad back pain in my lower back. It's not my siatic nerve i know that but it makes me extremely uncomfortable and working sitting all day does not help it.

Did anyone have this and if so did anything you do/take alieve it at all??

TIA.

I am having upper back pain, and it is so uncomfortable. When I bend over . It is only on my right side. No matter if I sit or stand, it hurts.

Re: Back Pain

I had some lower back pain, and doing the pelvic tilt helped me. I have also been going to physical therapy and that has helped a lot. My pain is pretty much gone, and when it comes back, I do some stretches and it feels better.

Re: Back Pain

I have severe lower back pain. It was so bad last week that by the time I got into the office, I was crying! Well, yesterday I went to a spine specialist and was told that I have sacroiiliac (sp?) arthralgia. It is water and air in the joints, which causes swelling and pain. It is right where your spine meets your pelvic bone. I now have to go to PT twice a week. And, on top of this, I also have sciatica.

Hope you feel better. I know exactly how you feel. If it is unbearable, call your OB and he should be able to give you a doctor to contact.

OMG!!! my back doesnt hurt today but let me tell you i started to feel it at like 15 weeks ..not only my back but my tailbone was killing me..so i couldnt stand or sit..tylenol did not help ..at all..i pretty much tried to rest as much as possible..when i finally sit at the end of the day i will use a heating pad which helps..i dont think you are able to use aleive but last week i used it..it worked..it was the ONLY time i used it during this pregnancy and im 34 weeks..talk to your doctor...they may be able to get you maternity massages covered by insurance because of a doctors recommendation..
