Back Neck and Spinal Pain

Correct posture. Supportive chair. Monitor , keyboard and mouse at the optimum heights and finally regular breaks and stretching.

This is only general . The best way to really stop or alleviate back problems is to strengthen your core (stomach) muscles

Most likely it is a blockage of the gallbladder or the biliary ducts.

It is possible.. I would take a few more tests to be sure, though. And see your doctor. I would also think about what contraception you are using and if this is as effective as you think. Is there a high chance you could be pregnant due to that form of contraception 9if there was one.) Depending on your age/other factors it sounds as if your periods may just be irregular. Good luck!

Yes.

can knee problems cause back problems

yes i can but usually it wouldn't. If this happens apply an ice or heat pack for as longs as you feel necessary. If symptoms persist after 4-7 days you should see a doctor.

That would depend on the actual problem with the knee and the nerves that travel though it. If the "bad" knee changes your gate(the way you walk, it can upset the way weight is transferred to your lower back.

Ask anyone suffering from neck pain and you'll hear that their pain is more than just a passing irritation. It can also cause related migraines, lower back pain, shoulder pain, loss of sleep, and stress. That's a lot to cope with and it's easy to conclude that there's one thing that must be done - banish neck pain once and for all.

With that in mind, the first place to start is your pillow.

Here's why.

The vertebrae in your neck are neatly positioned on top of each other; however, there's a natural curve to your neck. If viewed through an x-ray you could easily see this natural curve. The more your neck maintains this natural curve, the happier it is.

Since we sleep about one third of our life, it makes sense that you address the pillow you are sleeping on. Large, fluffy pillows prop up our neck and tend to flatten that natural curve in the neck. This ends up stretching some of the neck muscles and contracting others. When this type of muscle activity is kept up for hours on end, it results in neck pain. Sleeping on a large, fluffy pillow would be equivalent to tensing your biceps muscle for hours on end. How long can you make it before pain is experienced? Not too long!

It sounds like you have cervical subluxation. That means you have a cervical vertebra out of alignment. You should consult a chiropractor for evaluation and xrays. He or she should be able to properly diagnose and treat you.

I have a severe back pain. My last herceptin trtmnt was done three days ago.

WebMD.com has answer to a variety of health question including symptoms and treatments.

It is probaly a infection. You should see a doctor.

Yes could be. I had this signs a week before my period. But I knew i was pregnant even if the test was negative. My husband and I are trying to conceive for 2 years with our second child. So after 3 days of missed period i checked again and true enough i was pregnant. I also had spotting (Brown-red light discharge). Goodluck!

Yes, you can get neck pains from hickeys.

First of all, if you are still on active duty, you do not get disability. Disability is compensation because you cannot earn a living. You earn a living while on active duty. Therefore, the military does not give you disability rating. It is the VA's responsibility to determine your service related injuries once you separate or retire from active duty.

You should see a Chiropractor, they can take x-rays and determine if a spinal subluxation has caused this problem with your head. The spine and nerve endings effect every bodily function, if one thing is out of wack, then you will feel the effect of it.

Pressure on the nerve root can definitely cause pain and it may also cause sensory and/or motor deficits.

This is strictly a personal opinion. I would consult an osteopathic physician (DO) -- NOT a chiropractor (DC) -- first, and then have her refer me as needed.

Stress can have a huge impact on a woman's body. It can irregulate your cycle and bring on more irritating symptoms of PMS. If you have any questions, ask your doctor.

The discharges of various colour does not mean you are pregnant at all.

Vicodin or any other harsh pain medication. Medical marijuana is great for it though and is far less dangerous then any pill.

Simple massage and regular exercise for lower back keep the lower back pain away.

Hi, This could be caused by the Cerazette Pill, irregular period, the doseage being too low/high for you or even pregnancy. Best to see your doctor to rule out pregnancy and to see if it is indeed the pill causing this. If it is, then change your pill. Take care.

Now would be a good time to take her to a doctor. It's possible that it's nothing serious, it's also possible that it's a mild stroke. There are several possibilities... 1. If the pain begins at the hairline, about a quarter of the way between the midline and the ear, and when there is a lot of pain that "shoots" from that area and up into the scalp & same side of the head, it could be an occipital neuralgia (the patient usually has a lot of headaches on that side if the head). There is a nerve that exits from the base of the skull and traverses about half-way up the side of the scalp & head. If the nerve is inflamed, pushing on the areaa can cause the shooting pains up into the side of the head. IF this is it, a simple steroid injection (by a physician/PA) can solve the problem! If it is a spinal nerve compression in the neck, this could call for physical therapy and possible surgery, AFTER A COMPLETE NEUROLOGICAL WORKUP WITH MRI, ETC). Question here is, does the numbness travel down into the arm or hand?? Is there any wasting of the muscles in the arm/hand on the same side as the neck symptoms?? It could be something as simple as "myofascial disease" (trigger point). This is where the muscle and membranes that separate the muscle groups (like the white tough tissue that is on the outside of a tenderloin) becomes inflamed from a fall --or sudden stretch-- and the nerve that runs through that area also becomes inflamed. If you push on the 'sore' area, does the pain shoot down into the shoulder/neck area?? If so, this could be the "myofascial disease" as described above. The headaches that you describe above apparently involve the entire head & neck; these headaches are most likely a result of the upper back & neck "tension" & constant muscle tension in reaction to the pain she's been having. (Are they like a 'band' around her head??) Whatever it is, she'll certainly need to be evaluated by a properly trained professional (sorry... I don't personally feel a chiropracter should be involved with treating this type of problem unless it's been properly diagnosed and can be treated by physical therapy [Note: most younger chiropractors have been trained to know their limitations and after correctly diagnosing a surgical problem will recommend a neurosurgeon your grandmonter can see]. For an article on myofascial pain, see the website I recommended.

Poor posture and inappropriately placed equipment.

Just go to the docotor or ER right away, especially since you have already had a miscarriage. It could be a cervical change that can cause vaginal bleeding. Vaginal bleeding can also be a symptom of ectopic (tubal) pregnancy. Another cause for bleeding during pregnancy is a miscarriage although the first two reasons for bleeding are more common, it is still a good idea to contact your doctor.
