I have been experiencing pretty horrible lower back pain recently . I would like to stay away from prescription meds . Anyone have any home remedies or advice ?

I didn’t wake up with the neck pain, as a matter of fact it didn’t start hurting until a couple hours later. When I turn my head to the right, or tilt my head upwards the pain is excruciating in the right side/shoulder area. When turn to the left or look down it doesn’t hurt as much if at all. I tried icy hot with not much relief, and if I try to stretch it becomes to unbearable. I can’t go to a doctor because I no longer have insurance. Any home remedies somebody can share?

I am looking for home remedies that help to relieve back pain? The pain extends from my lower back all the way up to my neck and shoulders.

I think I’m having Sciatic Nerve Pain…..do you have any home remedies that have worked? What caused yours?

I’ve just started golfing and my back gets pretty sore after 18 holes. Are there any back pain exercises or other home remedies that could help me get back in shape quickly?

I’d rather not go to the doctor due to money and I can’t lay out of work if possible. Are there any home remedies that ACTUALLY work? I have a 1 & 2 year old at home that I have to keep up with. I need relief quick!

My sciatic nerve has been a problem since I was in a car accident over four years ago. I have been to the hospital and to doctor’s, but their solution is pain medication that makes me feel out of it. Are there any home remedies out there? I could really use it- especially today!

Have any of you had a pinched nerve in your back because you were/are pregnant? I am 5 months pregnant and in so much pain sometimes I can’t even walk. Does this go away while you are still pregnant or does it go away after you have the baby. If this keeps up can the doctor put me on bed rest or something? It is extremely hard to sit here at my desk and work when I am in so much pain. Also, I haven’t and don’t want to take any sort of medicine while pregnant or use heating pads so any home remedies would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
P.S. I have already gone to the doctor and she said it would have to run its course.

Ok here’s the deal, I’m 23 years old (I’ll be 24 this December) and I had an MRI about a month ago, found out that I have a herniated disc in my lower back. Here’s my problem, I’ve always had back pain but it’s just never been this severe and I use to always see the chiropractor. I’m just upset since this is my 3rd week off of work, the pain is still in my hips down into my left leg, sometimes my left toes and at night when I try to sleep the pain is just 10x more severe. I don’t want surgery this young in my life, physical therapy seems to make it hurt worse and I don’t really know any other at home remedies? Anyone else have this problem with some suggestions? I tried putting the vinegar into my bathwater to drawl the pain out but now I’m itching like crazy since I forgot I’m allergic to vinegar. Forgot to mention, I have a heating blanket I sleep on at night but even with it being on the lowest setting sometimes it still gets too hot. I tried the IcyHot and that only lasts for so long. Plus the doctor gave me percosets (oxycodine) and I don’t like taking them unless I just hurt that bad which is why I’m on here trying to find an alternative. Help, please?
No definatly not over weight- I’m just right actually, I’m 5’6 at 130lbs.

Okay so no more heating pack and stay on the perc’s – awesome

Do any of you have any home remedies on back pain? I have tried stretching but that only seems to work for a little while. I am having trouble working with the pain. Any advice would be wonderful!

I’ve been having general back pain for the last 2 years or so. I have been diagnosed with scoliosis, but it is mild enough that my doctor would not recommend PT. However, the pain is a dull ache throughout my back, worsening in the lumbar (lower) section. Can someone please recommend any effect home remedies, exercises or anything else that might reduce the pain?

I have had three disks removed and still suffer pain in my lower back that "shoots" down both legs. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has home remedies that they have tried that work. Thanks.

My back is sore everyday and stiff. Right now my biggest complain is this spot in between my shoulder blades below my neck on the right side of where that hump thing is. It feels horrible. My other complaint is that the muscles around my ribs seem sore and stuff. Like as if my muscles are hardening or something. Sometimes at night when I start to get settled into bed my back will start cracking by itself, that’s the only time I get relief. I’ve tried everything from hanging my head off my bed, neck rolls, stretches, massagers. Can someone tell me any home remedies or weird or natural things they do to alleviate strange back pain? Thanks so much!

Have had lower back pain for over a year and taking medication for pain and spasms. Would prefer to cure myself with other methods, home remedies.

I went rock climbing yesterday and I’ve had this pain on the right side of my neck. It only hurts when i lean my head to the right though. I really need to get rid of this problem because it hurts too much to go climbing. My dad showed my some neck exercises but the pain comes back after a couple minutes. If anyone knows some neck exercises or home remedies or something for this i would greatly appreciated if you helped.
