Yep lower back pain!

So just been to docs as convinced my back pain is AS, but he has said it’s purely mechanical back pain, I’m 6ft 3 so he said I’m more likely to get back pain than most people and my anxiety will make it a lot worse too, I’ve had blood tests to test for inflammation and a mri which came back clear, it’s just hard to believe this pain isn’t from something bad

Aside from normal things like exercise and posture, treating the mental problem will also help treat the physical one.

Thanks fish, that is very true, I am struggling to believe the doctor because the pain is very real but he is the top doctor at my surgery and he’s been my doc for 15 years, and I’ve had the tests inc MRI so I have to believe it right?

Take the reassurance seeking word 'right?' off the end of your post and that's it
