Oh, My Acheing Back
My back is so bad today. I can’t find a comfortable place to sit, lay, stand, walk. Guess that covers it all. Anyone have any suggestions on what to do for back pain ? I don’t have and can’t afford a comfortable couch or bed. I use Therma Care heat wraps, but that only helps for awhile. I can’t take pain pills due to stomach problems. Everything I sit on is either to firm or to soft. Any suggestions ? Can’t get a doctor right now. Hope you all have a good evening.
Wish I could give you a good suggestion for easing your back pain. When I’ve had back pain, I would have to get strict bed rest for at least a week before seeing any improvement. I do know that a cold pack will bring down any swelling, and heat attracts blood to the area. I hope your back begins to feel better real soon. (((HUGS)))

Sometimes a hot bath or shower will help mine. I hope it’s better soon.

I soak in Epsom salt hot water or with Dead Sea salts for 20 min and also I use pain cream like Ben gay or walmart equivalent since it has the same ingredients but cheaper.

Thank you for your inputs. If I stayed in bed longer then 6 or 7 hours, I’m afraid I’d never get up. Can’t lay that long. I don’t have a tub here, just a shower and I hate showers, makes me claustrophobic. I have tried creams like Asper Cream, nothing helps. I do appreciate everyone’s comments though.
