Hi All, i hate to have turned into "that person" who develops something new everyday and writes a wall of text about it, but in this case it's actually happening, and equally worrying. :(
so not too long ago, about a week now i noticed some harsh lower back pain while in bed for a few minutes which dissipated. this wasn't the problem as i have felt this sort of pain before, but it was never constant. throughout the week i noticed that the pain never fully went away, and gradually other problems started to pile up over the current problem. one night during the week i noticed a sharp stabbing/tingling sensation in my sides, not exactly in my lower back, but close. this sensation is no longer as intense as it previously has been, but it can be noticeable at times.
a little later on i noticed that my sides had become sore, essentially the same feeling you get after a work out, except i haven't worked out. this hasnt changed much since it started.
and of course today something new had to crop up. after about a 5.km walk/jog i noticed a pretty big strain in my left shoulder into neck area that hasn't really let up since.
At first i thought the pain was only isolated to my lower back, but recent pain is starting to make me worry otherwise, and the whole situation is making it pretty difficult to act like everything is alright around family etc.
some things i think could add some more insight to the situation, i'm 19, not particularly overweight. ever since the pain started i have began doing "golf-swing" like twists to my lower back alot more often which results in a crack and some brief relief. i'm not that physically active and have spent the majority of the summer doing things while sitting. the pain more or less goes away completely when lying down on my back for a while.
The whole situation has been pretty draining as of course because of my ongoing anxiety issues i can only fear the worst case scenario. has anyone else ever had progressive lower back pain and possibly pain in other parts of the back aswell during that? also if this was anything sinister would the pain I've been feeling have been able to move from one place in my back to another so quickly? or as i've been feeling back pain for ages now that goes away on its own, if it was anything serious would it have shown itself more prominently earlier than now? really any help/advice on the matter would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!
