When the older person in the movies says "It's going to rain, I feel it in me bones" That shit is real !

Seems every time the weather gets wet and rainy for a week or so, my lower back just starts screaming at me, and by the time I take enough aspirin and or Tylenol to make it tolerable, my stomach gets pissed off.

I dont have any spinal problems I know of, and it seems to be the lower back muscle. I can't really make any sense of it. Some days I can do 4 times the work and it don't bother me at all, other days I struggle to crawl out of bed.

Gotta be a better way to over come it!

 

I can feel it in my knees when it's gonna rain. It's real.

 

Yep, soon as the weather changed here my siatica started acting up. Let me tell you, it's a real pain in the ass ! ( And lower back )

 

There is....dont be a pussy...(insert no sarcasm intended emoticon)

 

Having pins, plates, rods, and screws in every bone from my hips to my ankles on both legs... Yeah I can feel a weather change coming... Hell I even set off metal detectors at some airports

 

I know what you're talking about! I have both knees replaced ! I set the alarm on in the Tampa airport! Hell they tested for explodes!

 

I have RA. I live in Houston. Humid AF. I feel like a different person in a dry climate.

 

I remembered Doan's Pills commercials from back when I was a kid, turns out they still make that shit! ( never looked for it on the shelf before ) Today I went and got a box and took some, seems to work ok.
In the meantime though, in order to not permanently injure myself , ( and to not become dependent on taxpayers, aka Disability ) I'm doing some research. Only one of the symptoms that seem to be like what I experience, is much like that of pregnant females. Considering I have a beer gut about the right size it only makes sense that I need to lose about 30 lbs.

 

I have scoliosis, so I'm stuck with back pain until the day I die

 

Hi all try ibuprofen 200mg it work well with knee and back pain for me. But take it with food.In the UK you can get it without going to see the doctor.don't know about the US.I am 67

 

You can try the combo of pantoprazole for your guts and the nsaid naproxen........it works for me.

Thinskin

 

If you dont want to take drugs to TRY to overcome it...I recommend lots of hot peppers and core exercise. This coming from an out of shape, 280lb, 6ft tall guy. The peppers have huge anti-inflammatory properties, and building up the core muscles strengthens the lower back. Also, the hot peppers will keep you generally more healthy and your body will fight off many germs better and faster...

 

Naproxen also works for me and
Voltaren Back and Muscle Pain Relief Gel it's pretty fast.

 

Fibromyalgia here, 2 cervical fusions, 1 lumbar, 1 knee surgery, plus more than million and a half miles driving 5 to 6 Paracetamol 750mg per 24 hrs, I welcome the pain and fight it with a little help from my friends.
No Sympathy please, not asking for it.
Sympathy for the Devil, love the Stones

 

I get it ......but try spinal meningitis at 2 years old and growing up like this...................

 

I have bursitis in my right shoulder and a sternum that was opened up some time ago. We don't get much rain thank goodness.

 

Having had back challenges since I was 21, if the muscles in the lower back, those muscles are most likely tightening to tighten protect at least one of the lumbar vertebrae that is out of alignment. I have experienced every type of pain and misalignment you could ever think of.

Some are debilitating - literally, to where you can't move without excruciating pain; some simply squeeze nerves, where there isn't much real pain, but there is a noticeable loss in strength - usually but not always, in one of the arms (depends on the nerve) being pinched by the vertebrae.

When I see my chiropractor, the first thing he does is test my resistance - he'll have me hold up one arm and tell me to pushh against it as he pushes it forward - then he'll do the other - also does it with each leg. This tells him where the weakness is, and helps him center on the troubled vertebrae.

I do not believe in doctors for spinal misalignments they only believe in surgery as a last resort or even, at least in the old days, 'spinal fusion' - the worst thing a patient can ever do in my opinion. They are completely opposed to the chiropractors' number one tool - spinal manipulation.

I suggest the OP see a chiropractor.

 

I have no reason or want to see a Cracker Backer, Jeez

 

No matter how I say this, somebody will make a joke, however while driving cars, I've been hit from behind 5 times, never sued any one, but wish I would have sued all of them, my neck was definately injured by the first one but my neck issues didn't show up untill much later. My neck issues however are no where close to my back issues, which are only recent.
