Sounds silly but it's causing me to panic

[reddevil]

When I sit down and my back touches the chair etc, I feel a pain in my back, like I'm leaning on a spot or an insect bite.
I have looked in the mirror at my back and no spots are there to see or anything else to see.
When I press it with my finger it hurts.

I have had it for three days!

As I suffer from health anxiety, this is making me panic with worry.

It sounds daft but I suppose it can not be anything serious?

My tummy is the same but I have about five insect bites, which stand out.

It could be something really tiny like a nick in the skin or just a surface level skin irritation which is unfortunately just hitting against the chair. Does it happen only in a particular chair, for instance, or is it when you sit down generally. You are probably just stressing over it - as we all do when we are feeling very vunerable. Sometimes we just need some reassurance. Does it hurt when you press the spot with your finger?

I get worries like that as well which seem silly but make me panic. Sounds like maybe you have bruised your back or trapped a nerve at some point, hence it being tender when you touch it against something.

Hi,
It sounds like it could be a small spot under the skin, i get these and they can be painful, especially when you have anxities about your health like me and your sensitive to any pains you feel.

Ive had a couple of these on my scalp and it was very worrying as i thought it was some sort of tumour growing out of my skull....[:I][:O]

Try not to worry about it, im sure it will be fine.

Take care xx
