I have had back pain come on quite quickly this afternoon. I am 7 weeks postpartum and breastfeeding if that is relevant. It feels like squeezing pain in my mid back, and I feel quite sick too. No position relieves it and it is as bad sitting still as it is with movement. I have never felt pain quite like this before. Could a trapped nerve come on so fast?

I am only in my 20s but scared it could be cardiac

Should I get checked?

111?
Anyone else with you?
Have you googled how to ease back pain & tried any?
Deep calm breaths dont wind yourself up further
Could it be trapped wind?

Edited

Yes my husband. Could be but doesn’t feel like it. I know that can be agony but it’s a different pain

Did you have a c section? I would probably call the out of hours Dr since you're only recently post partum.

Yeah I did.

Ring 111 and get triaged. How are your bowels?
