I am relatively young (21 years of age) and can’t sit straight or carry a lot of things as I can feel it in my shoulder blades and spine. I have had acupuncture before and that hasn’t helped at all. I was just wondering if anyone knows the causes of my back pain or any ideas? I know people will mention bad posture, but miss that out please. Thanks.




I am only 21 but have been suffering from lower back pain recently. Does anyone know what could be causing this or any exercises that could improve the pain. I am thinking it could be bad posture, but again this just started happening this past month. Help!




Spinal cord is feelable from the back of my neck?




When I stand up, I can feel 2 parts of my spinal cord on the back of my neck. I have bad posture, and I don’t think this is normal. How can I correct this?




back pain?




at orchestra rehearsals i get a warm pain in the middle of my back usually after sitting for a bit more than an hour. not bad posture because i always make sure to have a straight back and sit at the edge of my chair. also, dont tell me to take meds, i believe they are a crutch.







I’m pretty sure i have collapsed arches (something genetic) and i started feeling pain in my knees and lower back pain for several years (20 now). I also think it’s partly due to bad posture, because i spend 4-5 hours at computer.
I started doing exercises since april and decreased the time spent on computer and it’s been useful. Should i ask a doctor before trying one of those plantars?
Any tips appreciated!
