When standing still, have one foot higher than the other, it really works, like even a level of a 3" to 5" can make a difference when standing idle. If working on concrete, get soft soled shoes, like cushions. Trying exercises like walking on toes for a minute. Sitting down on a chair, bring your legs up and stretch your foot all the way forward and then all the way back (may have to have someone help you with this one), it stretches the tendons and muscles you have used one way all day. Taking baths with epson salts helps (clear with GP). Make sure (via blood work) you have the right balance with potassium, magnesium, and calcium, to keep the leg pain away. Also stand two feet from wall, hold the wall and lean into the wall by relaxing arms, helps with legs. Also massage legs from foot to knee. Keep hydrated. When you can get a break, put feet up, if you can, higher than heart, helps with the blood circulation. If your feet swell, make sure you have good shoes, see GP to make sure you don't have an underlying medical condition. Compression stockings for men and women are available to help keep the fluids from staying in legs and feet (see GP for guidance). Back pain requires actually exercise and make sure there is nothing wrong first medically. Lot of stress from standing all day. Swimming is good as a relief, so is yoga and massage. Generally, people that eat right don't need supplements, but who eats right? Balance your meals with lots of greens, fresh veggies, light on meats and beer. Too much calcium like dairy can cause a buildup in blood, so balance is important. Try to stay away from corn products, seems there are people that are on their feet all the time, getting off of corn does help, but they don't know why yet. Sometimes my son, after being on his feet all day says he feels like he was hit by a truck, God forbid, but he goes on his bike and weird, using different muscles helps the ones he overworked, so try it. If you have no medical problem, sometimes a hobby like bowling can make the difference because of the way we move or not move all day needs all the muscles working. When tired, do put feet up, massage legs and feet, use pillows for back support and chill out. |

What could pain in my back I have been experiencing back
pain (localized to the
middle-to-upper right region
of my back) all day,
especially when I take a deep
breath. I've also noticed I
get the pain when I move my
right arm in certain
directions, as well as if I
twist my back to the right or
left. But the pain is the
worst when I take a deep
breath. Could this just be a
muscle strain? I'm not sure if
pain from a muscle strain can
be felt from taking a deep
breath. Any advice and/or
information would be
appreciated.
Thanks.

There is a chance that you subluxated (partially displaced) a rib. This usually happens in the back from a traumatic incident, and can cause restricted and painful breathing. You also might have strained or bruised an intercostal muscle, located between the ribs. Either one would cause the symptoms you're describing. A chiropractor might help, as well as alternating heat and ice on the area. Start with 10 minutes of heat, end with 10 minutes of ice. Gentle deep breathing exercises can help a displaced rib readjust. Follow the procedure in the link below, except only breathe in to the point where you experience NO pain. You will find that you can breathe in deeper the more you do it. |

When does neck and back pain When does the actual neck and
back pain usually occur? I'm
almost a month pregnant and I
woke up this morning
experiencing the worst back of
my neck and back pain! I'm
experiencing stiffness and
sharp pains everytime I bend
my head neck or back forward,
even when I'm sitting down.
Has any woman experienced this
kind of back pain? When does
back and neck pain usually
start during pregnancy?

It could just be stress for you or you could have pulled a muscle. Since you are only a month pregnant, I wouldn't think that the neck and back pain was from pregnancy. A cause for neck and back pain is because of the increase in hormones which causes a shift in joints and can loosen ligaments which could cause posture to change and a less support for your back. Another reason is once you become bigger and actually have a pretty big belly, your center of gravity will change and this causes a different posture that your body isn't used to., which over time will cause pain. Also when the baby becomes bigger and you start to gain more weight, your back has to support more weight in a different area than it's used to. Ever carry a heavy back pack around all day and your back begins to hurt? It's like that, only in your belly. You can start to help symptoms of this by using pillows between your legs to even out your back while you are sleeping. There are also certain pregnancy pillows that are made specifically for pregnant women. I started feeling back pain around 20 weeks. I'm also very small built and very short, and carrying a baby and baby weight for me was a struggle. You'll start feeling pain once you put on more baby weight and your belly gets bigger, but it can all depend on your build. Good luck to you! |
