I go to concerts frequently, and after about thirty minutes of standing my lower back is radiating with pain. I can always take Advil for pain relief, but is there anything else I can do? Should I wear any specific type of shoe? Thanks for your advice!

Hello out there,
I’m about 5 weeks pregnant and my lower back started to really hurt about a week or so ago. I didn’t know this symptom came this early but i guess it does. Did anyone else feel lower back pain really early or is it just me?

I had a little bit of back pain around 7 weeks and then it went away..then it came back really bad at 14 weeks. Now sometimes it hurts for a few days and then stops.

Playing without proper stretching or warm up can injured you or maybe cause lower back pain also known as athletes back.

TMac, Finley and other have reoccurring lower back pains. I love basketball that I think its to early to stop playing.

without resorting to surgery heat is usuallly good to relieve it
